Dean,

LMB don't tend to stay on a jug like catfish do. So I don't mean set the jug and leave it over night. Use them as a way to have multiple lines out. Monitor them and when you observe a fish on one, get to it quickly. Variations ... set out three balloons (filled about 1/4) on rods and drift or slowly troll them. This can also be a way to locate fish concentrations. Striper guides do this. There are gadgets that will separate the outer lines and keep them left or right of the boats direction. Another variation when they are back along the shore would a jug line along the weeds where jugs are separated 20 feet or so. You can just keep moving it along every 20 minutes or so and cover lots of water with lots of active bait. These are just I ideas so don't be shy to experiment and improvise.
