When we decided to bolt a Minn Kota electric onto the bow of our 7.3 metre Bar Crusher boat ‘The Producer’, people gave us a funny look! How can an electric possible be any use on such a big boat?
Well we are happy to report from day one we found out that the big Ulterra with it’s 112 pounds of thrust and super long 72 inch shaft gave us a massive advantage in all sorts of different angling options.
The ability to spot lock the big boat, often in breeze and current in water where anchoring is not possible, opened up a whole new world! We use it all the time, far out to sea in water as deep as 600 metres. And the results speak for themselves!

I’m passionate about fishing and enjoy every opportunity to land the big ones using the latest Minn Kota technology!

From quietly positioning my boat while wash fishing for snappers to holding position on deep pins for kingfish, Minn Kota has taken my fishing to the next level. I could now never do without one

Making fishing TV shows is the dream job no doubt about that. But it’s long days out on the water and the key is to maximise time spent fishing.

I would have to say the revolution known as spot lock has been the biggest change to the way I fish ever, it allows me to sit right in the strike zone irrelevant of the prevailing conditions and just keep fishing!

Minn Kota is as much a key part of my everyday fishing as lures, bait, rods and reels.

It’s probably the biggest game-changer I think I’ve ever put on a boat. You’re so far ahead of the game. The Spot-Lock can anchor you in any depth of water, and it’s so accurate. The Ultrex has the true feel of a cable steer motor, but with all the benefits of electric motors.
