One more thing to think about
: The motor mounted trolling motors have to have the motor down in order to use them. Since this thread is about going into shallow water you may need to raise the main engine up thereby making the trolling motor useless. There are many times when I raise up my main engine and just use my bow mounted trolling motor to get me into and out of really skinny water and/or thick weeds. I have a 24 volt 71lb thrust Motorguide with a 51 inch shaft. Just my 1/50th of a dollar.
