I'm running a Millenium Side-Kick double seat base with side by side Millenium seats for 2 on my rear deck. My HiTek holders are set up for 2 rods off the back and 2 off the sides near the rear. I run a 6 foot baitcaster trigger rod on each side of my Suzuki, a 10' Southern Crappie rod at the corners at a 45 degree angle, then a 14 foot Southern Crappie 143T rod at 90 degrees to the transom where it can easily be reached by the fisherman in the seat on that side. I also run a 6' dropper rod with a 5 oz weight off the same holder as the 143T with a crank on a 3' leader.
This set-up has proved to be the most productive, easiest to make turns without tangling, and easiest for me to run from my center console with the remote on my 112 RipTide.
Many folks try to pull cranks like they pull jigs longlining and there is just too much chance of major tangles and lost fishing time. 3-4 rods for each fisherman is plenty for anybody who is starting out pulling cranks and even then it is easy to not pay attention to baits running wrong, trash on lures, small fish being dragged and even good fish on top and not being noticed.
