[QUOTE="shfishinsticks, post: 122687, member: 1246"] I used to attach to the bow eye. That became a real pain trying to retrieve it. Started attaching to the front cleat (about 5' back from the bow) this year. On my boat, that position offers the same control as the far forward position plus easier retrieval. On a few occasions, I have needed 2 drift socks to slow me to the desired speed (front cleat/stern cleat). Once that happens, it's not too long before I'm making my way back to the ramp. [/QUOTE]
