Minn Kota Trolling Motor - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I’ve tried a DIY Motorguide trolling motor with a mirag drive cassette and a group 24 battery mounted behind the seat on the PA.
It worked great although clunky and heavy...
I tried the Watersnake motor with a Hobie cassette mount when it came out a few years ago...smaller but less options on speeds and it’s pretty cheesy in the manufacturing
I’m now running the Bixpy motors in both my 2 Pro Anglers and my Adventure Island
The battery system is pretty cool and the mount options for the motor are pretty varied.
I’m sold on this motor as both affordable and efficient.
