live minnows in current(from bank)

[Reel Fun]

A 3 way swivel with a dropper line much lighter than your leader. Tie the hook with a live bait loop (perfection knot) and run about a 3ft leader and use just enough weight to touch the bottom.

any ideas on rigs for use w/live bait

In the nose is best when fishing in current. If fishing in lake with a bobber or in still water you can hook them in the back. if you back hook them in a river with current you might as well put a dead fish on your hook.
