trolling motor
Quiet fishing propulsion
A trolling motor is a small electric motor mounted on a boat's bow or stern, used for slow, quiet propulsion—especially when fishing.
Unlike the main outboard engine, it allows precise maneuvering at low speeds without scaring fish: He used the trolling motor to drift along the shoreline.
Modern versions often include foot pedals or wireless remote control.
