[QUOTE="Specknreds, post: 122522, member: 801"] We use them all the time to drift across bays and lagoons. We have found that you might catch 8-9 fish on a windy day drifting fast without the sock. We would use it on the next drift and it would keep you in the strike zone a little longer. It has doubled our catch rate since we started using them. My outboard goes too fast at idle to troll. I hate trolling, but when we do, I started using the sock and it has allowed us to really slow down. Another good use for a wind sock is if you ever have outboard trouble in high seas. Deploy it off the bow and it will hold the bow into the wind and waves. Hopefully keeping you from swamping. [/QUOTE]
