Re: NY State holdover trout lake question
your battery will drain very fast at constant trolling. I'd connect at least 2 batteries in parrallell, as large a size as you can fit.
What do you consider fast trolling speed? if i want to go 2.7-3 mph with a few rods and down riggers out (they put significant drag on the movement of the boat) I use the bow and transom motors both with 3 batteries and it doens't last long enough to keep that speed; i need a 4th battery to get a decent 5-6 hours of trolling especially if there is some wind. and that's for a boat a little smaller than yours.
