This high-performance trolling motor empowers you to spend more time fishing and less time fighting wind, current or complicated gear.

Why this motor stands out
For kayak anglers who are serious about their technique and gear, the Force Current offers a perfect mix of stealth, intelligent control, and durable power. Where traditional trolling motors for kayaks might lack advanced integration or wireless control, this model elevates your setup with high-end marine tech. Whether you’re navigating dense vegetation, holding on a waypoint in current, or switching to a float-remote throttle while casting, the Force Current gives you an edge.
Tips for best results
- Pair with a high-capacity battery (24 V setup recommended) to maximize the 50 lbs thrust capacity in current or wind.
- Calibrate the multi-band GPS anchor-lock on your chartplotter to take full advantage of the holding power.
- Use the weedless prop when fishing shallow or in heavy vegetation to avoid prop spin-out and maintain stealth.
- If your kayak supports foot pedal mounting, consider adding the optional wireless power-steer foot pedals to keep your hands free.
- Ensure your kayak’s transom mount supports the 4-hole tilt pattern and check shaft clearance to avoid drag in shallow water.
- Regularly flush the alloy shaft and mount hardware with fresh water if used in saltwater environments to extend corrosion protection.
Gear up with the Force Current and dominate hidden pockets and open water alike—this is where kayak fishing meets full-blown propulsion intelligence.
