OK, that's the first thing to think about. Although you can catch fish from an anchored boat on softies, it's not the best way of doing things. If the boat drifts, you cover a lot more ground. A sea anchor is used to slow the drift when there's even a little wind. Yes, cast in the direction of the drift, left the softie sink to the bottom and work it back to you, letting it sink to the bottom every now and then. When the boat is right over the softie, or the softie is behind the boat, it's time to wind up and start again. I hope that makes sense, the reality is simpler than my explanation! |
