Anyone Fish Multiple Poles at the same time? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Years ago I was trolling with 2 rods off LJ. Had a swim bait on one and a small rapala on the other. Both got hit by big bonita.
The cluster F that ensued made me never troll 2 lines again. Both fish went in different directions spinning the yak several times. Ended up with heavy braid wrapped around me.

I still fly line a bait and bottom fish with the other. But no more double trolling.

Maybe on a hobie you could keep driving forward to keep the lines straight.
