Just wondering those of you with a kicker, is it really worth it?
Last season, found times when I would use the bow trolling motor to troll, but would need to go about 4-5/10 on the speed to get a trolling speed. The 115hp main motor cant troll that low, and in reverse is about 3mph, which sometimes is just a tad fast. So I'm thinking a pro kicker would fit the spot. Yet it looks like 4k to add one.
Is there any alternative to a kicker that would fit the bill? Maybe add a transom trolling motor?

We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
