great trick is to attach your planer line (80-100lb test) to the front ring and let out desired amount of line and tie off to a cleat. cast your lure out the back of the boat 20'-50' and put your rod in a holder. clip a snap swivel to your planer line and then fold a rubber band (shaped like a horse shoe)around your fishing line and clip to the snap swivel, let it go and it will slide down to the planer. when a fish strikes it pops free and you just fight the fish, to redeploy your line you dont have to pull up the planer which is a pain just clip on a nother snap and rubber band. at the end of the day all your snaps will be resting on the planer and you can use them again next time
