Rudder or Motor

[falkners]

If you don't have pedal power a rudder is a great help when fighting a fish. If you have to put the rod down to pick up your paddles to prevent yourself from being towed into a troubling situation you risk the loss of a good fish. Pedal actuated rudders being the best.

I have a OK trident 15 and when the wind is blowing and
you are trying to get back to shore the only way to beat
the wind cocking is with that rudder or you will be paddling the
whole time on 1 side
