I am still learning, but the 3 major things for me are:
Boat controll
SLOW SLOW use a 1/2 oz egg sinker, to make you go slower if wind will allow you, sometime I have to use 3/4 to 1oz egg sink depending on the wind.
Make sure all your lines vertical.
Last but not least don't get discouraged keep pluggin

Sometimes slow slow is too slow, sometimes it's ok. When I'm
using Kalin's curl tails I have to increase the boat speed
in order to get the curl tail in action, but I try to have the line
no more than Approx. 15 degrees slant. I can slow down if I use
minnows or jigs tipped with minnows.
