Trolling Motor Mounting Bracket And Its Usage

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.

It is usually mounted on what is known a which is the surface that makes up the stern of the boat. The motor is often taken out of the water whilst the boat is in motion to decrease the momentum and speed of the boat for better fishing qualities. It gives the necessary boost needed for more accurate maneuvering of the boat. This makes it efficient for the angler to be more on point when throwing your bait.

Something that works this well, might make you wonder where it comes from. It s inventor was Schmidt O. G who lived in Fargo North Dakota. He created this machinery in 1934, at the time it was known as the Minn kota. He used the following things to put it together: a propeller, shaft the can easily bend and a Ford model.

The more modern mounts don t function like the olden ones. A brushed DC Electric motor is what they utilize. It operates on deep cycle batteries, which are from 12, 24 until 36 volts these are made for marine use so they are perfect. In all that splattering of water, you may wonder if the water messes with all these electric components. These components are placed in the water-resistant compartment.

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.

The foot controlling system is better than the hand control because it doesn t need the use of hands. And it makes it easier for you to fish while moving the boat. It s only flaw is the hand-foot coordination which tends to be a bit off due to rough waters and severe weather conditions. The best controlling system is the remote system. Though expensive, it is the most efficient and give you more time to fish. It uses a remote transmitter or pedal transmitter.

Another thing to consider when purchasing one of these, is the one that powers by gasoline. The real hiccup is the fact that it mostly relies on control of the hand. So if you don t want to constantly have to use your hands for something other than fishing, don t purchase it.

But the actual best is known as the bow mount. Normally used for medium to large boat, but it is very expensive. Reasons for it to be the best is the pull of the boat instead if the pushing. This creates a much more easier steering than the others. It s bigger, better and harder to install, but it has the best fishing experience you can ask for.
