Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Minn Kota Endura Transom Mount Trolling Motor? 30lb

Brian,
  The first motor I had for my canoe was a 30# unit and it worked well on lakes.  Younger brother and I got into the Roanoke river at Weldon, NC to look for stripers and decided to float downstream (about a mile)to the "big rock" where the big ones were.  When we turned to come back up the going was really slow.  We had to hug the bank to make any progress.  I got a 50# shortly after that.

Hey all - I was thinking of buying this trolling motor for my canoe and fish a ton around Riverbend.  Is 30lbs going to be enough to push two adults in a canoe up river?  And, is this a good motor?

 

Thanks,

Brian
