Other than spider rigging, all of my trolling techniques are done with one person on the bow and the rest throughout the boat. When we are longlining, running boards, or running crankbaits we have one person up front and one in the rear. Of course, with the Terrova trolling motor I can run it from anywhere in the boat so if I have myself and 2 others, I can stay in the middle and move around to net fish or help with tackle.
