I use them frequently.
Rainbow, brown, and black and silver rapalas on downriggers were often my best trout lures during the summer months at Strawberry or Deer Creek.
Nothing really different using them. Up at Strawberry I'd have to check them every 20 mins or so to ensure a small, fightless Cut wasn't hooked and dragging on one.
I highly recommend the tactic.
As I recall I fished them down 20-30' this time of year
