Trolling Motor Mounting Bracket For Your Fishing Boat

By Gregory Hayes


What is a trolling motor mount and what is it used for? A Trolling Motor Mounting Bracket is a self-contained unit that consists of three things. Namely, controls a propeller as well as a motor that functions via electricity. It is then placed on the fisherman s boat at the too. They are usually attached to boats used for game fishing. It s often used as another way to generate power.

There is an area on the boat known as the transom. This is where this piece of equipment is normally placed. While it is great, sometimes it has to be taken out from the water. This is due to the fact that it hinders speed and makes the boat drag. Other than this, this machine is great for when fishing, particularly when you must throw in a bait.

This is an invention created by a O. G Schmidt in Fargo North Dakota. He made it by putting together a Ford Model and combining it with a shaft that is not rigid and propeller. He then named it The Minn Kota. A name derived from the area which his company was based in, which is near North Dakota border. The establishment is still in production of major components of this appliance.

Due to a advancements in technology, today s motors use a brushed DC electric motor. There is a range of 12 volt deep cycle batteries which were for marine use, and goes on to 24-36 volt batteries. It s components are connected in a water-resistant compartment which is at the end of the shaft. The propeller is then placed exactly on the propshaft.

There are different types which are, controlled by use of a handle, controlled by use of your foot and a remote. The one that you can control by use of your hand, has some kind of a knob which allows you to adjust it. There is also a pedal that allows you to use your foot to control it, it also controls speed and the on/off option. The foot controlled ones need a specific mounting bracket that bolts it horizontally to the deck.

In order to fish you need your hands, so the hand control is a little bit inconvenient. The foot controlled one is better because then you can use your hands for catching fish. The only tough part is maneuvering through rough waters. So instead of all this manual hard work, you can get one that is remotely controlled. It is a little on the pricey side but it s worth all the fish you will be catching.

The first and best designs are the gasoline powered models. But they aren t really as efficient as the newly created models. It uses a pull-start mechanism and requires mostly hand control. The above mentioned models are some best models you can find, if it s all based on the experience you would want to have when you go fishing.

At the end of it all, remember what you really want. You want the absolute best experience as you fish. There is another one that is known as the bow, it is harder to place on the boat. Usually purchased by owners of medium and large boats. It is better in that it pulls the boat really well.
