When the fish are biting, you'd better be on the spot, and that's exactly when you need trolling motors, like this Minn Kota Traxxis 45 Transom Mount 12V 55 Lb 36 inch shaft.  All the well positioned casts in the world don't mean a thing if you can't stay on the fish.

One-Hand Stow - A remarkably simple, one-hand stow mechanism gets Traxxis in and out of the water in no time. Just pull up and forward to stow the motor with no buttons or release levers. Then when it's time to go, use the easy-access thumb release to deploy Traxxis into any of ten different positions

Steering Tension Control - The innovative new tension collar above the Traxxis mount allows you to adjust steering tension precisely to your desired level. Keep it loose for effortless steering or tighten it down to keep Traxxis in place - which allows for true vertical stowing.

Quick-Lock Cam Depth Adjuster - Change depths simply and securely with Traxxis' Quick-Lock cam adjuster. It makes depth adjustment simple and locks in tight to keep your motor right where you want it.

Push-to-Test Battery Gauge - Get an instant "state of charge" reading with the push-to-test battery gauge.

Indestructible Composite Shaft - Pound for pound, our composite shaft is stronger than steel. It flexes on impact and won?t break, kink or corrode. That's why we?re confident enough to make it the only trolling motor shaft that's guaranteed for life.

Cool, Quiet Power - Nothing runs cooler or more quietly than a Minn Kota. Our extra large windings and commutators dissipate heat, resulting in cooler operation, extended battery power, and longer motor life. And our unique bearing system reduces friction to cut fish-spooking noise. So quiet, they'll never hear you coming.
