Quick take
A spring-open harness buoy that simplifies drift sock deployment and release for precise boat control in windy conditions.
This 72-inch Wave Tamer drift sock from Lindy slows a boat's drift when the wind picks up, so you can work a breakline or piece of structure more slowly. Its spring-open frame and surface float make it simple to deploy and bring back in. It packs small for a boat storage compartment, and it suits larger boats as well as trolling and saltwater trips.
