How do i make a trolling board?

Question

I am looking to make a small wooden trolling board for use behind my kayak for mackerel and bass, i cant remember how to make one! I remember you put weights on the front so it sinks and when a fish bites it comes to the surface, does anyone know how i can make one?

Answer 1

Several different designs and a drawing with dimensions, etc....

Answer 2

They're pretty hard to make and get right, the dimensions etc, the weight, all that.
It's a lot cheaper and less time consuming to go to Wal-Mart and buy our boards there for twenty-bucks.
