I have a deep V 17′ Lund Fisherman that grabs a fair amount of wind. Looking to make a first trip to Lake Erie for some drift Jigging this spring (as a newbie), and then have the same option in the future for other applications.

Considering the 48″ Lindy Magnum Series Drift Sock.

I’ve never used one of these, so open to all advice on size choice, or another brand. NOTE… I'm in a 17' boat, and will be alone, so if it is real nasty, I'd be sitting on shore waiting it out.

If someone has a used one to sell – I’m open to that as well.
