      Thanks Dave! Yes the trim tab anode really helps with torque pressure - even on a console

    Thanks for explaining the ease of the 90 hp tiller when properly trimmed. Most people who talk tiller don't explain the trim tab anode with the clarity which you did.

    Love the idea of a tiller. I live over by Lake Michigan where Salmon trolling in 2+ foot waves is not uncommon. If you were to let go of the tiller while trolling, how does it track? Will the waves make it want to pivot? Is there any way to lock the motor down so turning is a bit stiffer?

    • @no_regerts5176

      There is a tension lever that you can lock it down with.

    • @MuskyMastery
      @MuskyMastery  7 місяців тому

      Yes, Jordan there is an easy to use tension knob that you can tighten as needed for less or more movement. If I tighten it a bit, and would let go...it would not move. Even when it is loose it does not really move much at all. I will do a video on this for you this season - in heavy waves.

    Love the idea of the tiller. I'm over in the Great Lakes where salmon trolling in 2+ foot waves isn't uncommon. If you were to let go of the tiller in large waves (when trolling), how does it track? Do waves want to push it back and forth? Is there a way to lock the motor down so it doesn't turn as easy?

    • @MuskyMastery
      @MuskyMastery  8 місяців тому +1

      If I were on the Great Lakes I would go with hydraulic steering so you could lock it. But regardless, the 895T tracks very well in heavy waves. It rides super strong in chop!

      I fish Erie with a 90 tiller. It took me two seasons before I broke down and got a Uflex ZTF system.

    How slow can you get the big motor down to when trolling? Always curious of that.

    Excellent summary of advantages of a tiller boat. You sound like an old "spoonplugger" talking about feeling the bottom with your lure and making hairpin turns to follow the weed line. And it's not the boat that follows the weed line; it's the lure that should follow it. Thank you for *not * saying "coWnsole". It is a console.

    • @MuskyMastery
      @MuskyMastery  8 місяців тому

      You’re right on the money man! Well said. Lure follows the weed line. The boat allows this to happen.
