I try to rig everyone on the boat differently and see who picks up fish firs then key on on their setup.
While they are playing around with it I will fish a few different setups with different presentations too, I keep 3 rods or so rigged just for me.
Keep a close eye on how everyone is fishing and stay in tune to what someone that caught was doing.
I know my wife doesn't mess with the presentation much so if she catches something the fish want it on bottom dragging behind the boat. If my youngest catches then they want a very sporadic retrieve with a birds nest about 3' up from the lure. If I catch its usually when I'm untangling the younger son's bird nest or getting my wife's line out of the power pole, so I don't know what I did right.
