Modern trolling motors have evolved into highly sophisticated angling tools.
By Ed Harp
In times long past, selecting a trolling motor was simple. Then things started to change. Major improvements were made to the power systems. Motors became more efficient, options began to appear and even deep-cycle batteries started getting better. Heck, with some systems, anglers could fish all day in a johnboat.
As time went on, things got even better. Twenty-four-volt systems began to appear in response to the needs of anglers running the bass boats that were appearing on the market. After that, 36- and even 48-volt systems began to show up.
Anglers with some technical skills could add a temperature gauge to their unit. Portable depthfinders were popular for a while. The transducer could be attached to the back of your boat or, in some cases, to the bottom of your electric motor. After that came units with autopilots, remote controls and GPS navigation. All of this from one electric motor. Who'd have thunk it?
