Our Minnow Fin For Trolling Motors from Boaters Catalog is perfect to help you keep your edge while fishing for bass, walleye or other game fish.
Whether you’re battling wind, water currents or the boat’s bobbing, the added 77 square inches of rudder area give roughly 10X the effective control compared to the electric trolling motor alone. The vertical fins increase effectiveness of steering with less power consumption. The horizontal fluke acts like a shock absorber to dampen boat bobbing increasing your comfort and safety.
The Minnow installs in minutes with just a screwdriver. It will provide directional assistance whenever it is in the water. The steering response is improved when using thrust or when using another motor for propulsion. If fishing conditions require drifting and working the current while stalking the ‘Elusive Lunker’ the minnow will add stability and limit wind effect. Fight the fish, not your boat. Tested and proven effective by Northwest fishermen.
Designed for Minn Kota 12v, 24v & 36v trolling motors.

Manual Jack Plates
The CMC Manual Jack Plates from Boaters Catalog has comparable design and construction features as the hydraulic lift without the convenience of automated adjustment.
If you desire engine performance enhancement, but don’t have the budget for our hydraulic unit then the ML-65 may be exactly what you are looking for. Our manual units provide similar benefits to the hydraulic units. However, since you cannot raise or lower the engine as you are moving you will not receive the same performance enhancements associated with a hydraulic unit.
The 4 and 5-1/2 inch set back plates are rated for V-6 and smaller motors. They are NOT designed for V-8 or racing applications.
Manual ML-65HD, item#65512 rated for V8 400HP outboards or smaller.
