How do I slow down my 40 hp motor to troll for walleyes?

Answer:
Many times at night walleyes are not as easily spooked as they are at other times, but boards can be effectively run as far out as 150 ft … at night though, it’s veryOff Shore Tackle Night Light helpful to equip the boards with Off Shore Tackle OR12-12NL Night Lights to make them visible in the dark.

As far as slowing down, we have used trolling plates and they do work well. We don’t really like drift socks for this application because the bag and/or the lines can get hung up in the prop.

Good Luck Fishing,
