Fishing with bobbers and coon shrimp, hell yea...   trolling in that cluster F&*k... not a chance..
By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

I agree with Huntbear trolling- not a chance at those two locations - Drano or Wind........  Saw some folks doing it, they could barely control things with one rods and kicker let alone two.  Not worth the trouble or hassles, especially if crowded.

2 rods per man aint a thang, provided you are proficient at doing so, and they guys you fish with are savvy.

We used to run 4 rods on 4 downriggers and two rods on droppers.

Keep it choked up tight. Heavier weights weights than usual keep the scope of the line to a minimum and help with depth control. Make sure to utilize your wingspan, with longer rods perpendicular to the boat, and the shorter ones off the back.

If you got greenies on your boat, kids, or guys who have never stayed on top of more than one rod, don't even try. Drano can turn into a tangle fest real quick.

I routinely see boats on the Hanford Reach with four rods out, sometimes five or six.

Multiple rods off a down rigger is never a problem in open water, but Drano and Wind - too many dumb asses there trying to run the extra rods and screwing up the flow....  When it's that crowded, all that it does is f-up everyone else.  Add that to people that haven't a clue about trolling yet alone driving a boat...
