Not in New Jersey, you will have them run over.

I have caught Stripers on them at the hook, but I don't think it's worth the work unless you are fishing a weekday.

There is defintely use for them to widen your trolling spread........whether you can troll more than 10 seconds w/o have them run over and cut off from your boat is another story altogether.... ::)
