I use my electric trolling motor all the time when using bottom bouncers/crawler harnesses and it works really well. I did try trolling with dipsy/Jest and spoons, but found it required running the electrict motor too fast to get the requried speeds and ran down the battery too fast so I gave it up. If I was to troll with spoons or plugs I would definatly use a gas motor. With that said though I don't think you have to troll as fast with crawler harnesses to be effective. You just need to speed up the drift a little to keep the sheephead and white pearch off the harnesses. I was only using a 40# 12V system on a 16ft boat though....
Hope this helps.Last edited by GotMach; 05-01-2008 at 10:12 PM.
