I would recommend checking out mike bakers trolling videos on YouTube. He will have you setup. Start off simple and keep learning and adjusting. You don’t have to be fully setup and a pro on your first trip.

we long line troll with 1/32 ounce and 1/16 ounce jig-heads with curly tails/soft plastic on it. Sometimes add a split shot. Usually troll .5 to 1.2 somewhere in there. We use the back of the boat and fish 6 rods at a time. If action gets hot we go to 4 rods. Cast the jig out a good ways, then let even a little more line out.
Crankbaits, we troll faster up to 2.0 and usually only use 4 rods or even 2
from experience I know that a good long cast with a crankbait is about 100 feet of line out
Troll where you can, meaning if the main channel is wakey at all, go find a cove that nobody is in. If you can get on the main channel when it's calm (early and late), it can be good too. There's no wrong way
buy you a few colors like chartreuse, black, orange, and pink , or combinations. See what works
On one lake I fish I'll use 4lb. mono (a real good fish here is 2 lb.s). On the other lake I'll use 6lb mono (crappie are a little bigger)
I also troll with braid (10lb power pro) but for me , it's a little harder to see
good luck

I use 10 lb .fluorescence mono line so I can see where the lines are. Any decent 7-8 ft medium action rod will work. Some use longer rods to keep line a little further apart. Use assortment of different depth running crankbaits. Find the fish and the depth they are at and then put the correct cranks on. Color varies day to day. Water clarity, sunny or overcast skies. I pull 4 off the rear of my boat. Need decent rod holders. Usually troll from 1.5 to 1.8 mph. 60 to 100 ftof line out depending on how deep I am needing to go. There are some apps out there that will tell you how many feet of line for the depth you want. I don’t really use them . I just put different amount of line out and colors of cranks till I get dialed in on what they want. Line type and size will effect how deep the cranks will go plus speed of trolling. I went this past Wednesday. All fish were 15-20 ft deep. So with that info you want to be a just above the 15 ft mark. We caught around 50or so. Only kept about 18. Hope That helps. Good luck
