I used to long line. Since I got the livescope I now "medium line". It's just a shorter cast, and a slightly heavier jig up front (on a double rig) so I can keep the bait down and a tad closer to the boat. This allows me see the jigs on the scope easier. Here in Florida I have found that when the fishing is tough you can usually find fish hugging the bottom, and the livescope lets me get right down low on them. Also, I've learned you don't want to let your bait drag the bottom cause you'll never catch a fish with muck on your jig. Seeing the jigs on the livescope keep me low, but off the bottom.
