hi tim, welcome to the site. just take a 5g bucket and drill a bunch of 1 inch holes in the bottom and tie it to a cleat and drag it beside the boat. a bucket w/ holes works better than a bucket w/o holes. between the bucket and trimming your motor up you should be able to slow down to a crawl. leadcore works great. when i use weight in front of tubes w/o leadcore - i use an egg sinker on the main line before my leader or main line- drail weight- leader. how much weight just depends on how deep you want it. good luck
