If I was gonna target fish at 7 ft deep @ 1.5 mph pushing I would let out
around 8ft on 4 rods and 9 ft on other 4 and let the fish tell me what they like, then adjust accordingly.
I use 4 ft leaders under 3oz of weight. I am guessing the bait to run 12-16 inches under the weight.

If your traveling quicker and you want to stay at 7 ft will have to let more line out to reach target depth.
more speed will cause more line angle.
