I’m going fishing this weekend on a boat. I need tips?

Okay so in Howard Beach, Queens, NY. I’m going on a night fishing trip on the NorthStar II from 7 pm – 12 am. this Saturday. We are seeking for Striped Bass. I know somewhat about fishing. The boat supplies the rod, reel, tackle, bait. What I need help with is what side of the boat should my family fish on? The front, back, sides? Also if i get a bite, set the hook, and start reeling in the fish. What if the line is about to break, etc? I need some tips.The north star is the name of the boat i’m going on.I fished on the back of the boat before and our lines got stuck to the motor a lot.
The way we will be fishing is. Let the line go down deeper into the water. Not casting.
