I moved my TM to the bow of my 1456 Lowe and tried running it on our lake a few weeks ago. There was a moderate wind blowing, probably 10 mph and the boat was constantly switching ends. It was extremely annoying, so much so that I gave up fishing for the day and pulled the boat out of the water to work on the front deck.
I don't have a motor to act as a rudder so I think I need to build something to work in it's place.
How would ya'll design/build a fixed rudder for a jon boat?
What size would you start with and how deep would you place the rudder?
