trolling motor for a pontoon boat
I am purchasing a used 20' pontoon that will need a new trolling motor. We will use the boat for family trips as well as fishing, so I was thinking a transom mounted trolling motor would be my best bet.
I am interested to get your advice about size of trolling motor (I was thinking 55# thrust) and opinions about placement. I will mostly use the motor for trolling crappie or catfish.
I know it is fun to spend someone else's money, but keep in mind, I do not have an unlimited budget! Thanks in advance for your replies.
