Having just dealing with those type winds last week,was able to troll only with the use of a large drift sock tied to the bow,I have a 17.5 ft.deep V,no canvas, with 60 tiller and adjustable idle, a 2000lb. pkg. You will have to troll in 2 directions, into and with the wind,and when into the wind be ready for a fire drill,they say not to but I swear I catch more fish going into winds. Even with all this you are going to be one tired puppy after that workout. I caught some nice eyes a couple years ago off the cement plant mid-October,you can get out of some NW winds there with the high bluffs.
