Spider rigging is great fun . My wife and i do it with three poles each. But if it gets too busy we might pick up one. When i catch one she nets it and i net for her. It can be frustrating if a good fish runs across and gets in your other lines. But that is part of it. Good luck
Here is couple videos I made about spider rigging. May help ya a bit hope so.

Try stopping with a 10 mph wind with three poles bent in half (not good again). I didn't quit! I cut the mess out again and got them rigged out again. Fished for hours and didn't get the first bite (Cocodrie Lake).
Did I mention that I broke a tip on a 12' rod by it hitting against the boat while heading for the launch?
I'm not giving up. Anybody know of a decent lake to spider rig not far from Opelousas, La or anywhere within 1 to 1-1/2 hrs away?
