thanks for the beta...

Is it worth it to bring a driftboat to the wind, or is it strickly a trolling deal? (i've fished it twice from the bank upstream, but thats it) bankies catch fish there?
ps- i don't have 150 yds of cable on my winch for lowering into the canyon(!?), nor does it look runnable in MY willieboat...any advice (including bank fishing beta) would be helpful. The wind looks like it would be fun to fish with a wetsuit and IK...
