I'm upgrading my trolling motor from an old Minn Kota Maxxum 80 to either a Ultrex 112 or and ulterra 112. Ranger 520. I mainly crappie fish at Ross Barnett or Okatibbee and mostly by myself. The auto deploy on the Ulterra may be nice on Okatibbee since there aren't docks at the ramps. But I'm a little concerned with how the ulterra may respond when wrapped up with lily pads at Barnett. Any experience/advice on these trolling motors would be appreciated.
