A lot of people talk about running cheaters now of the riggers. My question is how long of a leader should I run on a cheater? Is it better to run a free slider or a fixed? I have fished the lake years ago and we always stacked rods on riggers which it seems like isn’t done much anymore for understandable reasons. I have run cheaters this year the few times I got out with very limited success. I have only been running about a 5-6 foot leader on them. I’m afraid if your not running deep on your riggers your cheater won’t be down very far and 5-6 foot back on a leader ends up too close to the boat. Maybe I’m totally off course on this and that distance is OK. Any advise is appreciated.

I have run both fixed and free sliding this year and on more then one occasion when I was bringing the line in the free slider ended up all twisted up around the bottom bait. Most times I was running a spin doctor and blamed that. Is there a way for that not to happen? Don’t let the slider go all the way down? It was a pain because it gets really twisted together.
