It depends on where the fish are? We mark fish from the bottom to about 26-28 and sometime higher. A good rule when trolling boards is the 50-50 rule using snap weights. I would start a 1oz and go to 2 sometimes 3 oz snap. Try different weights on each pole to see where the fish are biting. Just remember one thing never put your baits below the fish. Walleye always strikes from below the baits. Hope this helps
