Drogue v anchor

[pgoldsmith]

Hi all, quick question. Is it possible to bait fish in PPB by using a drogue rather than an anchor. I'll be fishing mainly off Black Rock and Ricketts and have a 3m Aquayak Scout. Cheers

Of course. You'll drift so position yourself so the wind and tide take you over the patch you want to fish. It's a good way to cover a lot of ground but can be a pain in the arse if you're aiming for a small mark.

Cheers, thanks for the quick reply. I don't have a sounder so covering ground will be a good option for me!

Good way to pick up flatties ( and bajos) need a sounder or know the area to avoid reef.

Wind speed not much more than about 5 knots though
