I'm in the process of ordering a new boat (Bass Tracker Pro Crappie) and there isn't a lot of room to install a sunken well for the foot pedal.
I'm interested in all y'all's opinions and what you use. I value your opinions a lot more than I do in some of the bigger bass fishing sites. I've never used a hand operated TM before but have owned every kind of foot control TM. Laying the pedal flat on the floor is a big 'No Go' for my back.
Thanks.
I love my foot control TM but I use a hand control mounted beside my seat. It gets the pedal out of my way on the floor and I can adjust the speed more precisely than with the foot pedal.Here is what I use: http://www.crappie.com/crappie/fishi...te-update.html
using my first foot controlled motor in my small boat - like it. frees my hands up
I use a MG DS82 on my PC 175. The foot pedal works great. I also have a wireless hand control so I can sit in the back and longline troll and operate the motor up front.
well i asked my self the same ? last year ended up going with a foot operated one and and happy with my decision.
went with a Minn Kota pd that lets me move the pedal any were around the boat
x2! My opinion also although I have a Motorguide.Quote:
