Don't know about the best and the brightest but....
Both methods you just listed worked fine back then and work fine now...get out there and drag something around it'll work just fine.

Typically in the warmer water months fish tend to be in the upper water column. So I would say flyline. And vice versa in winter you will find more off the bottom sitting on rocks. And much less up top.

I never use a weight this time of year. At a slow cruising speeds your mack should still be a couple of feet deep and out of the bird zone. A small 1/2 oz sinker isn't going to sink the mack much. The difference of your bait being 2 feet or 6 feet under makes the yt kick its tail maybe 1 extra time. A sinker, even a little one, is just more thing that will snap kelp or grass. Mike

Do a 2 or 3 oz carolina rig on one rig if you are going to troll two macks at the same time. The weighted one being the short troller. That way when you stop to drift the weight will go down and the fly will say up and out the back.
If you're just trolling 1 rig for yt, flyliner. |
