A drogue allows you more time to fish productive water.
Slow your drift by 75% and catch more fish.
These drogues were developed by Mike Stevens from the Peter Hayes drogue design that many will be familiar with. It uses a mesh material, which makes it set more easily, is lighter, more compact and easier to handle. Instead of a centre hole to stabilise it, the mesh allows a small amount of water to filter through. The mesh means you don’t pull large amounts of water into the boat, but still allows you to set your drift like using a sail.
These drogues comes complete with bridle straps, floatation and chain incorporated and suits boats to 6 metres. You will need to add line from the drogue to boat.
