Tony;
on my whaler I used a bucket with four lines connected to it; three all the same length went to the edges of the bucket the fourth was a bit longer and tied to the back to trip and pull it in.
Come to think of it I need to find that....
to stem the wind I put it off the stern, and usually drift an eel or squid, then plug from the bow... with company or fluken I use it on the port side about 1/3 of the way to the bow...
come to think of it, I need to find that bucket.. I dont remember where I put it...

Bucket is a waste of time,,,,way too small. Unless you want to throw 6 of em' out.
Get a sea anchor (drift sock), plus they roll up and store easy.
But like the F Freak said neither will work in current, it will just move with you.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

I'll gonna try both sock and bucket. I hear you guys about the wind. I try to keep things simple out there, having to pull in a sock or bucket, then reposition yourself and the actual fishing part , not to mention having to share the ocean  with tom #^&#^&#^&#^& and harry,,so having a good system is important. I'll be eyeballing the boat show for a sea anchors. Billy,even though me and my boy had a good day we could of used the sock. Thanks Pee's  : |

And weighted is also a plus. It's weighted so that it'll open right away on deployment. |

Just dont take off in a twin turbo deisel 30ft Blackfin with your sea anchor deployed... you wont even feel it until it's flapping behind the boat... ask me how I know...
yup, you'll never hear me say my sh_t don't stink....

Whenever there is something in the water like a chum pot or drift sock, I take the key out of the ignition as a reminder. That's the only time I do that. It's worked OK so far. |
Best regards,
