Thanks for the info in advance.

I imagine you are talking about trolling a mack in LJ for the YT, I was fortunate enough to spend a day with Jim Sammons there last year and he told me about 60 feet behind you should just about do it, now as far as a bit of weight to get er down in to a strike zone would be ok...
There is also some new braid out with color, I can't remember the post right now, but it was only a couple days ago in here, which if I had known about it before I loaded a new reel with spectra and a top shot, I probably would have opted for that instead. I know there is a formula for x amount of feet out=y amount of feet down, I am sure somebody knows that one...
A friend of mine trolls with a rubber core 16-18 inches above the bait, he catches fish with that rig...food for thought
