75-100 feet behind the boat will work well for you. you want to get away from the motor noise. move closer to the weight as you move deeper. for 100 feet deep, i will sometimes fish as close as 5-10 feet of the weight.
the cannon sport trolls have a base that you permantly mount to the boat. the downrigger pops off and on with the push of the "tab lock" button. very quick and easy. you can also do other things, like a gimbal mount or clamp mount if your situation calls for it. let me know when youre closer to mounting time and i'll tell you what i think you should do. you'll have to ask the other guys about the other brands, ive not used other brands.
sounds like you have a good start on your trolling gear. be sure to come to the ISE show, which is march 15-18 in S.L.C. you should have no trouble getting good info and products there. like i said, check out the RMT and Macks booth for sure!
