Subject: which type trolling motor.


I agree with these guys as far as Minnkota being the way to go. I do prefer electric steer as opposed to the cable driven types. I don't feel that you lose much response time with an electric steer motor. I now have a genesis 74lb. thrust and I love it. If you like to fish suckers in the late fall, I feel this is your best option. You can nestle up anywhere in your boat and operate your trolling motor effectively. I have owned powerdrives in the past and never had any kind of problem with one. I think the genesis offers you the responsiveness of a cable steered motor and the comfort of an electric steer. I don't know about you, but I would prefer not to be balancing on one foot when the fish of a lifetime hits, or when I'm fishing in high winds. So I guess it's a matter of what you feel is going to make you fish as effectively as you can in the conditions you are faced with.
