Re: Trolling motor

I have a 115 Honda on a 16.5 boat. I troll many hours with this motor.
I did put in a low speed prop, and had it tuned up for low speed.
I have no problem in going slow.

I used a 40hp honda on a 16ft alum. witha drift sock I can get my speed down to 1.6 with it . you should have no problem

Re: Trolling motor

i dont like dealing with driftsocks and the trolling plate will work but if you already have a small trolling motor why not put it on. i went from a gallon an hour to a gallon every 7 hours with my 115 merc and 6 hp evenrude. i also like 2 motors to cover the what ifs. with the speed controller on the small unit i can really get my speeds where i want them, down to the tenth of a mile per hour range. why put unnecessary hours on the bigger more expensive motor
