Wondering which is better for use with a trolling motor. A 50 amp fuse or a 50 amp Circuit breaker. Will be going on a 12v system for a Motorguide wireless 55. What makes them different and what are there advantages?

When splicing the fuse or circuit breaker, the fuse or circuit breaker should only be on the positive wire if I'm reading my manual right, or does it not even matter which wire I put the fuse or circuit breaker on?

My battery will be below the front deck, I was thinking about buying about 6ft of 6ga wire and wiring to the battery with the breaker in between. Is that a good idea or should I do something else?
