When fish are aggresive, running lures tight to the rigger weight (4-12' or so) will often produce good results. When fish are pressured or are for whatever reason either neutral or negative, then longer leads behind the weight are often the ticket. Experimentation will tell you what leads will be most productive for the day.

As for slider lengths, most tournaments call for them to be 72" or less. Even if you don't fish tournaments I don't really see much advantage to making your sliders any longer than that.
