I be willing to bet it all means something different in other parts of the country.
You can tight line troll by useing the spider setup or stright out the sides with each rod 2 feet shorter or longer than the one next to it. Hook up and just swing the fish in to the boat. In the spider rig you got to lift the fish up between the other poles and let the fish swing stright back toward yourself.
