It's just a way to put ripples on the water , works great on the flat no wind days . Its okay if you can leave it out, around here they will steal you blind .ha ha

Just tried to go test my rig but both the ponds I use for training were bone dry. Didn't expect that after being there in the last month with them full.

Called a "Thrasher" and there's youtube video, but none of the guys I know who've used trolling motors in that fashion have bothered to set them up a second season. Suppose, however, that your mileage may vary.

Well there is the link to my flickr couldn't embed it from there. I'll upload to youtube in a bit and embed them like usual. Scroll over to the right and you'll see the other two videos. If you see nudes, well your welcome.
