and if you have one on the line keep other poles in the water, you often catch a second one who comes up under the boat unseen to follow the one on your line up to the boat.
many times I nearly lost a rod putting it down to get the net for my partners cobia and my pole starts screaming so if you put one down be sure its in a rod holder or it can be snapped in half or taken over the side while you are concentrated elsewhere
