You'll be o.k as long as you don't back up or turn while releasing

Just use a flying back lead . . .keeps the leader down and out of the way, even on a tight-ish line. Always use one when using a boat - with practice (by either lifting or letting it drag) you can pretty much determine the distance from the top of the leader and ensure it drops at that set distance from main lead etc . .

I do similar, almost always use flying back leads on my waters (the large Fox ones if possible, 10g I think they are). I have a soft rubber float stop set up the mainline, this stops the flying back lead from hitting bottom if I don't want it to.

In this way I can lay the rod down on the pod (tip under if I prefer) and know the flying back lead is hanging 2/3ft under the boat. Hands free from rod

If I do want to drop a back lead at a certain place I will put it in the left hopper and drop it, then proceed on to the target area and drop the right hopper (hook bait)

Find your spots first and save. Then send rigs out without the Deeper attached.

Look at gs tackle on facebook he is regarded as the best for vulcan arms and accessories like pva compartments and hopper cover/dividers.
