BeaverTail Kayak Trolling Motors for Big Fish 105, 108 and 120 Kayaks
Island Hopper latest edition trolling motor is designed specifically to fit 3 Waters kayak made by Feel Free.
The Island Hopper BeaverTail Rudder Trolling Motor installs quickly in place of the beaver tail rudder without any modification. Island Hopper Transom Motors are another great design unparalleled by any other kayak trolling motor design. Lifts and Pivots out of water for beaching kayak. |
Conventional Trolling Motors are the most commonly used motor for boating and kayaking. They are cost affective and are equipped with 5 forward / 2 reverse speeds. They are primarily designed to propel you quickly to your desired destination or fishing hole, and then reposition your boat or kayak when currents or wind blow you off course.
Understanding Conventional Speeds:
- 1st and 2nd speeds are designed for “short bursts” only, not to exceed 15 minutes intervals at a time. "Not for trolling", as it will damage these two speeds.
- 3rd speed is for covering larger areas, traveling and mostly getting around while conserving battery.
- 4th speed is for traveling longer distances faster.
- 5th speed is for when speed is required, such as a change in the weather, current, chop waters or an emergency; getting to safety or shore quickly.
Battery Compatibility: Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries. Conventional trolling motors are Not compatible with Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4 batteries

Variable Speed Trolling Motors are one of the most improved technology today. Boaters and kayakers are gravitating to trolling motors with variable speeds due to their many benefits,
Benefits of Variable Speed Include:
- Infinite Speed Range of "0-100 speed forward and reverse", which allows for trolling at very low speeds for hours without affecting any speeds of the motor.
- A Micro Processer aka (Pulse Width Modulator) to increase battery range 3 to 4 times, allowing for hours of continuous trolling.
- Controlled Amperage provides steady trolling in currents and wind while conserving battery at 95% efficiency.
- Integrated Electronic Board System senses over and undercharge of voltage, eliminates voltage spikes, 95% efficiency in power and torque.
- Soft start: no spooking of fish while trolling and lighter in weight than conventional trolling motors,
Battery Compatible: Lithium-Ion / LiFePO4, Deep Cycle Marine, AGM and GEL batteries.
