Slowing down 9.9 trolling kicker
MrEarle replied to MrEarle's topic in Boating and Fishing Discussion
Wow, I bet that might do it - I'll try it out. Great suggestion, thanks -
I have a Suzuki 9.9 4 stroke, nearly new. Runs like a fine watch. Here's my trouble, at lowest idle, it still moves my boat too fast for a slow troll for trout. I looked at the std prop - it's the lowest pitch already 7". Is there anything else I could do to the motor to slow it down? My boat is a 20' North River Seahawk, not exactly a small boat for this motor. I suppose I could drag drift socks, but just more gear to setup. Thanks for your suggestions
