Everyone has a different style but I arrange 8 poles, all same length, around the bow of the boat. Each line has a 1/8oz jig head sickle hook on an 18". The leader ties to a double end swivel with a 1/2 oz bullet weight above the it. The main line passes through the weight.
This method gives me an accurate depth presentation, can change directions easily, and makes floating weed dodging easy.
