    Default Power pole drift paddles


    I have never used em. The manufacturer claims that they can slow your drift by 50%. But I can buy a bunch of chains/socks for what they want for a pair of paddles. Still, if they work they would be mighty handy. I see a lot of tournament fishermen using them. Are they effective by themselves, or will I still need a sock to slow drift enough? Looking for someone with experience with these things.

    They work for sure but it's a lot of coin.

    They work well in a moderate wind. I use 4 BIG drift socks on the tough days. Ain't no paddle out there big enough in 20 mph wind.

    I have an 860 Wareagle and they will drop me from 1 mph to .4 with the top of the paddles exposed. If I want to
    slow down more, I lower the paddles deeper. I have been well pleased with them but I've never fished in a 20 mph
    wind. I like pushing the button to raise and lower them better than climbing back and forth across my bench seat.
    Tell'em I'll be there.

    These slow you down pretty good in 20 MPH wind!
