Ok, so I have an 18 ft x 7 ft flat bottom jon boat with 28 inch sides. I added a bimini top and half enclosure. I have a minn kota terrova 80lbs thrust ipilot. I mainly troll for striper on Cumberland but also troll at Taylorsville lake and a couple smaller lakes. My issue is wind and how to deal with it. Sometimes trolling seems impossible. I want a speed around .7mph most times. Sometimes slower sometimes faster. But with the bimini or enclosure up it is sometimes impossible. Any advice or tips on how to get better boat control?
