BlueNova Lithium 36V batteries for 36V trolling bassboat fishing

Fishing is a very fun activity enjoyed by millions of people around the globe. A memorable fishing experience is associated with good quality gear well suited for the type of fishing you want to pursue. You may be interested in freshwater or salt water fishing. Avid anglers know that trolling is one of the best methods to target any type of fish in any setting i.e., inshore or offshore fishing.

Inshore fishing is fun but the excitement of offshore fishing to target big monsters such as marlin, tuna, wahoo and sailfish cannot be contained. However to catch these big game fish via trolling you need to equip your boat with a good quality motor and a power source. Let’s take a look at aspects of trolling motor that you must consider before buying one.

Trolling motor for dee-sea/ marine environment

Many boaters make the mistake of buying without enough research. Here we will guide you about the things to consider before buying a motor.

• Bow or transom motor?

Anglers or boaters can use a bow or transom motor. Bow motors are usually placed in the front of large boats that are 14 feet or more. They are best for these kinds of boats because they pull the boat through the water unlike, the transom boat motor that push the boat in the water.

Transom motors are usually clamped at the back of the boat and are recommended for smaller boats. They offer improved trolling and positioning especially in tough conditions.

• Understand the thrust power

Thrust power is the strength required to move the boat in the water this means that the greater the power the better vessel moves in the water. Thrust power is usually associated with the size of the boat for example, if your boat is bigger than 22 feet it will require a power of 101-pounds to work efficiently. But if your boat is over 22 feet you may require a thrust power of 112-pounds or more to operate.

A wide variety of boat motors are available but two of the best motors (in terms of power) for marine setting and trolling application are 101-pound and 112-pound motors. Before selecting any motor it is advised to carefully observe and understand your boat’s requirements (length and thrust power required).

Trolling motor batteries and voltage

Almost every trolling motor comes with different power systems such as 36, 24 or, 12-volts. Usually, 12-volt battery is preferred because it is cheap and easy to operate however, it does not allow the power generated by 36 volt or 24-volt battery. They allow you to enjoy fishing throughout the day by increasing thrust power and provide a smoother ride.

The type of battery also depends upon the weight of your vessel. If your boat is larger than 16 feet and you are fishing in mild to harsh conditions then it is highly recommended to use 36-volt battery to maneuver smoothly.

Trolling motor batteries come in different varieties such as lead-acid, gel batteries or the most famous lithium batteries. Among these three options, lithium batteries are the most efficient and long-lasting for trolling purposes.

Here some of the best trolling motor batteries for a 101 and 112-pound boats.
