each other. Put them out at fast idle too, but watch them hooks
Not sure what you mean by jumper box but this is what I do.
I use a #3 wash tube and put an inner ring screwed to the tub with about an inch gap then tie the tag end to the handle of the tub. Then hang the hooks on the inner ring and you shouldn't have to worry about them getting tangled. Sure makes it easy to put out the line the next time.
Also like J White said, I put my line out at an idle and bait as I put the line out and throw the hook as far as I can. My hooks are spaced out at 15' so when the hook is thrown, the next hook is ready without having to pull all that extra line off the tub. I stob a pole every 5-7 hooks, depending on how many hooks I am setting. The only draw back to this is if you are not used to doing this you can get hooked very easily.
