I used to carry and use 2 quite often even when fishing break lines but sometimes I only used the larger one of the back/ off side of the boat, shouldn't be an issue alone or not in landing fish unless one really gave you a run at the wrong time. Now I switched to a bass boat with twin power poles, they Slow me down .5 mph on there own when just deployed part ways into the water and .7 when burried into the water I also have a set of drift paddles for them, they have many adjustments in them to pitch the boat at angles and really slow me down better than two drift socks that were rated for larger boats than I had. Old boats I ran two socks were both warriors.
