you can troll 4 easy, the 2 outside rods should be shorter distance from the boat with deeper running lures, the 2 rods out the back should be farther distance from the boat with shallower running lures. this way when you make sharp turns the long lines will "ride" above the shallow/deep lines and wont foul.
example;
chrome or pearl bomber or bandit crankbaits 75 feet back out each side.
shallow running ghost x-rap or black/silver ac shiner minimum 100 ft back out the back of the boat.
p.s. if you see that all the hits are coming from the deeper baits then you might want to change the shallow runners to deeper cranks, however just reduce to one rod straight out the back. its tough to fight more than 3 striped side fish at once anyway
