Hobie Outback Rudder Question - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

My rudder was acting a bit wobbly when swell hit it and it turned out that the steering cables needed tightening. Now it stays put much better without input.

I sometimes paddle and peddle into the surf but I keep the rudder up because it prevents you from turning quickly with the paddle if you are really getting hammered off track by waves.
