If you want to try it quick, turn you front pole holders back where you can stick rods out both side and fan out pointing back. Varying rod lengths will enable you to get some separation between the lures. Put some 1/8oz jig heads on rods with #6 test or so, cast out about 20-40 yards depending on water depth and cruise at between .8 and 1 mph. Keep moving as when you stop they all sink and either get hung up or crap all on them. I use sliders, curly tails and shad swim baits.
Thats the basics. You can vary jig weight and line length based on water depth. If you get into it you can rig your rod holders in the back but trolling motor control can be difficult based on your particular motor. The description above is how I got started. My eight pole setup would only work with six rods at first and I had a cable operated TM so everything had to happen up front. I bought a powerdrive that has a long wire which enabled me to move the foot control to the back then mounted seats and rod holders across the back. I don't think I pushed one time last year as pulling is way more fun to me. Maybe we can hook up soon and you can try it.
