Do you use the boards that are on the line back to the reel or do you use droppers off a main board? What size bait will you typically start with on a new lake? Jig, cranks or other?

Off SHore OR-12's which are an In-Line that attaches right to each rod on the main line heading back to the crank. Off shore also has a mini-planer board that is also and in-line that I am really have a lot of fun and success with - OR-34 is the model number
I always thought bigger is better - and the #6 Flicker shad - # 5 Salmo Hornet, If I fished bandits - it would be the 300 series, etc.
Cranks - they allow you to go up to 3 mph and cover more water - you can always slow down once you find them!
