I have 2 Easi-trolls on my boat. Not knowing what you will be targeting I use mine soley for Kokanee, Coho and trout.
I prefer using the Scotty power grab releases with the cable release clip and 8 lb keel wieghts.
I am not a fan of doubling up on one downrigger but many are. Too many clusters with the fast action of Kokanee coupled with my own impatience makes for a bad day.
I have found with the above set up I can troll as fast 2.5 mph dragging a full set of pop gear with out pulling the gear from the clips.
Of course, when I can I prefer to attach the pop gear to the keel wieght and only use the Rod line for things like wedding rings, hoochies or whatever I am fishing with.
