Electric Trolling Motors Guide (1) -Application

An electric trolling motor is one of the most useful pieces of equipment you can install on your fishing boat or small and medium sizes boats.  

They can be used as:

  • The primary motor in moving your boat in a short distance or period.
  • A backup motor in case of a failure of your gas motor.
  • Used for trolling where legal.
  •  Moving your boat a short distance to fish a new spot. The ability to maneuver your boat into tight areas with   great precision is invaluable on the water.
  • Moving slowly along a piece of fishing structure while you fish.
  • Holding your boat's position on top of a piece of structure.
