Yellow birds don't use a release on the rear but a snap you run line thru. There is a eye screw shown on optics. Does line run thru it or just thru the split ring on the release. None of the videos show exactly what I am missing.
I just bought 5 Opti boards with the Tattle tell flags and was wondering the same thing. I won't get to try them out for another week or two, but am looking forward to playing with them. Maybe by then I can find out the best way to rig them and how to reel in fish without getting tangled up.
