Bass Hunter - Tiny Boat trip

- This is a short outing with the 1 man tiny boat. The location was a small County lake in Chester County, Pennsylvania. Not many fish but the boat worked out ok. Trolling motor shaft could be customized by cutting it shorter. Minn Kota Edge 45 # thrust trolling motor works well with the one man tiny boat.
Great video.
Used to fish Chambers in my 10 ft Bass hunter 120 with 55 lb minn Kota and tiller handle for years. Had no issues . Did have to sit sideways when operating motor. Tight lines!
Nice little lake for the type of fishing I did. I'll go there again the near future
Get a "powerdrive" motor with the wired foot control and you will eliminate your problem, also have models available with spotlock as well which is awesome for fighting a fish, tying on a lure and not worrying about your boat drifting into the bank or exposed cover.
A little pricey at around $1500 but get the one with the battery maximizer which really helps battery life when trolling at slower speeds and it will not be long you will wonder how you fished without one.
im with you on that. Ive already changed it out for an iPilot unit and I cut down the trolling motor shaft so that the shaft and head unit dont get in the way of cast and retrieve.
thanks for the idea though
Buddy, I know this is a old video, but where did u get that trolling motor mount? I have the tiller kind but hate it, so im buying a bow mount trolling motor this weekend. I made a deck and plan to just mount it on the deck but id rather have a set up like yours..
I have since made it even better. I now use my iPilot 55 with this little boat. I cut the shaft down so it is just above the gunnel and still works with my bigger boat.
The mount was actually an option to purchase from Bass hunter when I purchased this boat. The last time I look it was no longer available on their website. Mayby email them directly and ask if they still have it available.
Good luck
Where did you get the fish finder mount? I have a Baby Bass and want to mount a fishing finder without drilling holes. Thanks!
These are the parts I used to have a mounting location.

This is the newer version than what I have but it is the Yak Attack cell block

Hope this helps
An inexpensive trigger-spin reel would sure cut down on the time spent messing with your spinning reel.
I have a couple Shimano Spirex reels and I dont care for the lack of the auto anti-reverse

Love it I have the 120 thinking about doin mines like that
Thanks. These small boats are so customizable and fun to use. Send me a comment when yours is all set up. I would love to see your ideas.
just got the bass hunter 120.
do you think i can use my suzuki 6 hp ? it weighs 52 pounds. if I don't go full throttle, would it be ok for the 120 bass hunter?
just got the bass hunter 120, do you think i can use my suzuki 6 hp? it weighs only 52 pounds. if I don't go full throttle, can this boat handle it?
I have the ex version of this boat and it’s awesome I wanted to put a trolling motor like yours is it possible
Your boat has the same bow and stern mounting plates that all versions have for a tiller style trolling motor. You would need to fabricate your own trolling motor bracket or contact Bass Hunter boats. ( basshunter.com/ ) and ask them directly about the trolling motor bracket.
I checked the web site and they no longer carry the trolling motor bracket that I have, as an optional accessory to purchase.
So to answer your your question, yes it is possible with the proper accessories.
What is the name of the trolling motor bracket? Where can you get it?
I purchased mine directly from Bass Hunter as additional equipment. I just looked at the Bass Hunter web site and it is no longer shown as additional equipment available. Maybe email or call them to see if it is still available.

just got the bass hunter 120 and was wondering if I can use my suzuki 6hp outboard?
it weighs 52 pounds. can this boat handle it if i don't go full throttle?
Oh boy, I do not know the answer to this. However I can tell you that my little 4 5 pound thrust trolling motor makes the boat flex when I engage the power if set on speed setting 5. So adding that much power.... you may want to contact the manufacturer on that one to get their recommendation.
Thanks for watching

I'm guessing your trolling motor is on the front of the boat. to my thinking, the rear transom is stronger.
I also think they sell a transom extension to give more strength when running an outboard motor.
how do you like the bass hunter? I hear it's very stable and quality made.
Nice camouflage mesh hat. Where did ya get it?
Cabela's- its branded as being made by /for "Realtree". thanks for watching
Where did you get that camouflaged mesh boonie hat?
Cabela's. It's made by Realtree
Like to take my boat to is lake how do I get there what RT to take ??????
Pa Turnpike to Pa Rt. 10 north. Right on to Joanna Road. At stop sign turn right on to Elverson Road. After (about 100 yards) the only stop sign, slight left on to Hopewell Road. Stay on Hopewell Road to the lake (on you right)
thanks for the RT to get there my friend !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the information !!!!!!!!!!
No problem
Damn you breathing like your under water
well, actually I don't but dummy me didn't realize that a high density mic would pick-up every little sound within 18 inches. I have since learned about microphone placement
