Default Re: Drift with the wind?

I love drifting, it's my favorite way to fish, sit back and watch my slip bobber. Only problem is a lot of the time the wind won't take you where you want to go. (over productive water) Anyway lately I've been trying a new technique. I drift with small planers as my bobbers and when the wind doesn't move me the way I want or I want to reset my drift. I just pass the two right planers to the right side or starboard side of the boat and troll away to where I want to be. The small planer act like bobbers and maintain good separation of my lines and keep them away from the path the boat just traveled either drifting or trolling.
