Striperman,
You can buy hi-lo rigs, I'd check your local tackle shop. They're not to difficult to make, which is what I do. I take a 3' length of 30lb mono leader (some use heavier), and make two dropper loops at about 1/3 and 2/3 of the length. Only make the droppers long enough to loop a hook on - 1-2". Next I tie a snap on the bottom to hold a weight and a swivel at the top to attach to your main line/snap. Simply feed the dropper through the eye of each hook and around the shank.

The first one may take a little time, but you'll quickly get it down to a couple of minutes.

Tight lines.
