Curious if you have any updates to this topic.  :smt004

I made the first test sample but didn't get an opportunity to test it.
Too busy working and not enough time for fishing.  I need to retire soon.

No worries, I hope retirement comes soon for ya Paul!  I was just thinking about doing this to my smaller frabill slow troll bucket, thinking that it being on it's side would hold larger bait better then in the vertical position.  I was curious if you planed to remove the weight at the bottom, or just leave it.

I plan to keep the weight unless it gives me a problem.
My next halibut trip is July 8th and hope to test it.
One issue I am still debating is if I need to bend up the front of the board to decrease water resistance.

I got to use it yesterday and am generally very happy with it.
The only minor issue was that it did not contain enough water; I mounted the board too low.
Water will come only to the bottom of the board when floating.
I will make another one with a board mounted at the mid-level.
