Subject: RE: trolling with an optimax 115


I have a 115 on my tracker and troll all the time. One thing that I do to get the rpm's up is I tie 2, 5 gallon buckets to the back, one off of each cleat and real close to the boat. This helps the motor keep a consistant speed and keeps the motor from sputtering. I can run as low as 2.8-2.9 with this set up. I also when done trolling give it a good run down the lake wide open before hitting the ramp.
