Fishlady, you passed the test!
I use Offshore Tackle mini boards with size 5 shad raps and size 7 original Rapalas.
The real advantage of using a planer is to put your lure/bait in front of fish off to the side of your boat, hopefully unsuspecting fish that are not spooked by your boat.
You see, a planer board 'planes' out and away from your boat.
I'm surprised you didn't know that.
