5/20/2017 7:00:30 AMCraig & Linda, A sidewinder planer with Hooked on Toys modifications, 1 out each side with 2 rods straight out the back. We have used them the last 4 trips and landed 30 walleyes and over 20 have come off of the sidewinders. I need to fish the same rigs off both setups on a busy fish day to know for sure but I suspect the sidewinders will make a difference. Any comments from anyone appreciated. Jim
