Drift Sock Recommendations?
 
Anyone know of any good drift socks they'd recommend? trying to fish san diego harbor and someone recommended that I invest in one to fish the incoming and outgoing tide...

Any help would be great! Thanks!

So far, all I've found are these on Amazon...

Both would work but you can check out the online store for this page you are currently on and see what they have in stock.

I have one of these and they work very well.

I have a cabelas model and it works fine. It's got a float and lead in the rim so it always deploys and rides strait. I don't know about a drift chute working in the tide flow. I use mine to slow me down when the wind is pushing too fast or against the tide flow. Mike

Drift socks are designed to slow down you drifting to match the water movement when the wind in blowing and also to aid in keeping your bow into the wind chop. on a yak i have used them to control where i face the bow as the wind pushes me down a channel. It is basicly a drag system so you dont need a big one.
