Get you one of these, then find you a way to establish a anchor pont and use a bunge cord to lock steering wheel in the straight forward position. Use your existing rod holders up front and use trolling motor just to steer. Don't know what you have for rods but I would use a 4-5 ft a 8-9 ft and a12-14 ft on either side. Just turn seat where you can watch poles and hit trolling motor every once in awhile. You don't need all the fancy stuff most of us have accumulated over the years. Some decent spinning or bait casting reels with a decent drag. Cast them out and give the line a couple three pulls and go cranking. After a little time you will learn to adjust your length out to control depth. Been ton's of fish caught like this over the years. Then when the bug bites you you can start spending all kinds of money on new reels, rods line, trolling motor,line and the 2 or 3 hundred crank baits you just can't live without.
