Ideally you would like the shallowest lures on the outside so not to spook fish but you better let that board back some so you don't tangle with a longer lead on an inside board.I still run my longest leads on the outside and immediately will put tension and begin reeling in a fish.I have been running a 2 oz weight with great results on the closest boards.Put out 20 then 2 oz weight and another 30 or 40 for a total of 50 or 60.
