    Default Trolling Motor for 14ft River boat


    My dad just bought us an old 14 ft Aluminum boat with a 25 Nissian on the back. It has a trolling motor on it but it aint worth a flip. I've started looking around at new and it looks like a Minn Kota Edge is about the best option I see out there. Yall have any recommendations? Also if you know of a good used one let me know. It just don't seem like the make many small foot controlled trolling motors anymore. We are just gonna be using it on the Pearl River in Philadelphia to bream fish and run limb lines for cats in the Spring.

    An Edge is what I run on my boat, they can take a pretty good beating. Where do y’all put in on the river at? That’s my stomping grounds... may see you up there one day.

    I have a bow mount hand controlled in classifieds for sale. Motor guide 12v 54lb. $150. I had it on a bass tracker pro17. It moved it pretty good a d I could troll most of the day on a single battery. I just moved up to foot controlled 24v80lb is only reason I’m selling.

    I live in Union. I’d rather fish the river than anywhere given the choice. My dad fishes from Billy’s too.
