My girlfriend must have heard me talking about one because she got me a easy troller so I'm going to give it a shot.

I have a 19 pitch prop on now and can't get close to trolling speeds. Don't want to change the prop to be able to troll and not go over 20mph as I have a pretty long run to some of my spots. I know several people who have run plates with no issue at all but it's the few that have had problems that worry me. However I will not be trolling tons of hours a season, it'll be mostly 2 days a week for probably 5 hours a day, maybe less.

Thanks for the opinions everyone I'm still working on the set up I'll be using come spring but these are eye opening replys so far

Hi guys I got my first boat this year and it's a 19 foot with a 4.3 merc. Not ideal for what I want but it will have to do. My concern is trolling the motor down for mostly walleye trolling. What's my best option? Trolling plate? I really don't want to drag a bag or anything and mounting a kicker would be quite a project with this boat.
