One problem I've had there is the wind. Unless it's fairly calm, its nearly impossible to keep something light like a Binsky on the bottom. I've had to go with heavier jigs such as Spro bucktails to have a chance to keep it down. Last winter I picked up a drift sock with the idea of slowing down my drift when jigging but I didn't get to use it this year.

Or use spot lock on your electric motor...

I spot lock manually haha constantly micro adjusting to react to the marks accordingly, tough with a big boat though.

Yep he controls that tin can perfectly out there and you think your going to sink to the bottom with every move you make. But he can sure stay on them and it makes a huge difference.

This is the allure of the tin can!

Your gambling with your life but you will catch fish.

Hmmmmmmm! I suggest going out to one of the Great Lakes! Catch a 20-30 pounder from the shoreline out there and you’ll quickly realize that Lake Trout fishing in NJ these days just isn’t worth the effort. Hahaha!!! Da truth!
