I think you will be disappointed with anything less than 54″, but I would suggest 60″ on any walleye boat.
June 17, 2009 at 11:30 pm #784752You could get by with a 54″, but get the 60″ so that you do pull the prop out of the water if the wind is blowing. The 2 things you will never regret with a trolling motor purchase is go longer than needed on shaft length and higher on pounds of thrust ! What motor are you looking at?

I don’t think you can have too much length on the bow of a walleye boat, with our propensity to fish in big wind and waves.
Yep, what the Proffesor said!
