Go ahead, make its day. The Minn Kota FortrexA(R) is fearless, with a ruthlessly tough anodized aluminum mount, Mono-Arm design and 112 pounds of thrust. It tears through anything in its patha |from thick weeds to stump fieldsa |to deliver you to the fish. Nothing says you've arrived better than silence. Getting to your favorite location can be a total waste of time if your equipment spooks the fish. Minn-Kota's patented Lift-Assist Mount cuts the weight of stow and deploy in half and features a stainless steel, nitrogen gas-charged spring so you don't start the day with a bang of your trolling motor.
