Perhaps you have the smaller Muddy creek boards?
I run their bigger boards, middle setting and they pull great with minimal lag.
Few days this season I had 2 long coppers per side without issue.
Ran Amish boards for years, the large muddy creeks run much better.
Never used their smaller boards so cant speak on those.
I also use double keeled otters for spring & shorter junk lines but for longer heavier weighted lines the Muddys pull better.
