    GPS. I long line so not the same as some that slow troll or spider rig. I find sometime you can go from .8 to 1.2 MPH, but all this last spring I was between .5 and .8, but I also troll 1/32 Oz Roadrunners. So all of that makes a difference.

    GPS via the iPilot remote when trolling less than 2.2mph. GPS for anything above trolling with the outboard.

    Even a cheap hand held GPS will work.
