I never tie up. Refuse to do it. I let the ipilot hold us wherever we want to be.

It's hard to understate the usefulness of a spot lock trolling motor offshore. Its a complete game changer. You do have to keep the engine running and pay attention if you're up current though.

It's incredibly nice to be able to "anchor" upcurrent from the rig and fish off the back of the boat.
