Purists in florida normally don't run trolling motors on their flat boats, but since I use it 90% up here, 10% in saltwater, the trolling motor is a must.
Man plan is to fish more with the fly for bass this year. Usually is trout, some bass, some crappie, some bluegill and an attempt for carp. But this year other than a trip here or there with trout magnets or some thing else it will be mostly all the time fly fishing.

Just trying to figure out the best mean to keep the tangle down in my bass boat. Same as you, no matter where I seem to stand in the boat it finds the trolling motor somehow.
