    Default Trolling Motor Question


    Does anyone know of a trolling motor that exists that's bow-mount but is NOT steered by a foot pedal or any of the other steering devices? I'm wanting to find a bow-mount trolling motor that's steered by the handle only.

    Thanks!

    Your looking for a bow mount trolling motor with a tiller. I know this one is a saltwater version, but this is the one I'm currently using - http://www.minnkotamotors.com/produc...bm_riptidesm3x You many be able to do a web search for a freshwater version with a tiller instead of the foot pedal.

    Hmm, that's a new one to me. I had the "Main" forum bookmarked. My apologies.

    MotorGuide makes one too! I recently bought one for my boat. Alas, I'm at work right now and can't remember the model number.
