I got my first driftboat last Feb. and i can tell you pulling plugs isn't difficult.. I am sure becoming really good at it will take time and practice but being good enough to catch a few fish is easy.. Just let both plugs out about 50 feet.. whatever distance you pic make sure they are the same.. The further out they are the slower they will respond to your boats movements but they will dive deeper.. In closer they are easier to control and may work faster but won't dive as deep... Set your rod holders as paralell to the water as possible.
get in a slot you like put them out then row at a speed that allows you to slowly back the plugs down the river. Don't try to cover the whole river but make sure you hit all the structure in the slot you choose.( with your plugs of course not the boat). If you absolutely have to hit something hit it dead on with the bow of the boat.

In case you are nre to boating altogether just remember to point the boat at what you don't want to hit and row away from it across the river NOT UP THE RIVER!!
One rowing error i am guilty of and am trying to correct is to take lots of short strokes instead of a few big heavy long ones. Also make sure you are legal.. coast guard approved jackets for everyone, a type 4 throwable ( seat cushion type) and an audible devise good up to 1/2 mile.. Also keep a knife near your rowing station in the event you drop the ancho in heavy water..
Driftboating is great fun just keep your head up and always looking for potential threats.
have fun and catch fish....
