When I use hoochies I put the hoochie back two and a half times the length of the flasher. When using spoons I go three times the length of the flasher. I know my measurements go against conventional wisdom (Salmon University) but it works. I like to troll pretty fast (2-3 MPH) too.

I usually put out 30-40 feet of line before I connect the line to the release clip.

I don't use my black box when fishing for migrating fish. I only use the BB for blackmouth. My 'riggers are manuals.
