I fish all from bank, I don't use minnows but if I were to I would put a jig on one and fish it until I found what depth fish were hitting at and set the bobber on other rod for that and start from there. That would dial me in enough to fine tune after that. At least I think that's what I would try, and I know I would probably lose a few jigs if Im over brush so I would take quite a few with me.
