Multiple Hooks on tip-ups

[vipercat64]

Seeing as how we now have no ice due to the recent warm weather and rain, I am thinking about rerigging some of my tipups...

I fish primarily for perch, and dream of trout.  What I am considering is setting up threeway swivel, with a leader going down to a hook with a split shot sinker, and an extra hook off the third swivel.  My question is how long of a leader should I give the upper hook, and how long of a leader down to the lower hook? 

Any suggestions are appreciated.

I tried in the past to run multiples the way you are describing but always had the upper minnow get tangled up or hooked on the side of the hole when I had a fish on the bottom hook.  I still run 2 hooks w/ around 2-3ft of leader line but in this config.  Bottom hook, 4"-6", split shot (size depends on bait size), another 8"-12", second hook tied to main line with palomar knot, another 12" of leader, swivel and then tip-up line.
