I pull 2 umbrella rigs with 4 12-16"lg shad. Depending on the water depth I'm fishing in, I take a 18oz to 36oz parachute rig and attach to the center line of the umbrella rig to weigh it down. Sometimes I hook the parachute about 15ft in front of the umbrella rig, this lets you fish at 2 different depths.
Either way you can fish it down about 15 ft behind the boat while trolling.
3 years ago I dip netted a 25lb striper that was on the surface because he had a huge croker in his mouth that was too big for him to swallow.
