I just ordered 2 OR-12 boards (left&right) with
2 flag kits. Is this everything I'll need? Are the releases provided?Thanks for any help.

You are probably ok but I replaced the releases that came with them with offshore snap weight releases. They seem to work better for me.
Ditto to what Brack said. Especially if use Fireline or any superline you may what to try different releases so you don't have to wrap or twist the line.
good luck - erik
The flag kits have the red releases in them. You are all set. Just a hint: if you use a fine super braid (10/4 Fireline or the like), wrap the line around the release to asure that it does not pop off on a hook up. Here's a better idea. Go to Off Shore's web site and order the free"Walleye Release". That's Bruces annual paper that is full of hints, tips, and advise. Good luck, and you're in for a real treat, when that first big walleye slams that board into reverse.
