Bullnose Rudder clamp on boat rudder fits a 1.125" transom trolling motor shaft. Commonly used for, inflatable Pontoon, Pelican Bass Raider 10E, fishing Kayak, Canoe, Jon boat, etc. USA Manufactured

These are great. I have them on all my trolling motors. I use trolling motors on my kayak and 12’ aluminum boat. I think they help with turning speed etc..

I added a side trolling motor to my Kayak, I knew it wasn't an optimal placement but seen other people do it so I gave it a try. It was terrible, tracking was lopsided, turns were dangerous, and could only turn left and not right, I had put a time and money adding the mount and was going to end up spending more to make this work but somehow ended up finding this simple yet awesome attachment rudder. Was very quick and easy to install, did add some extra tape since the rod on my watersnake 24lbs was on the thinner side, also had to flip the rudder upside down. Once on the water it completely tamed the trolling motor. Was tracking straight, turns were smooth and was actually able to turn right which was impossible before and left with ease. This saved me a lot of headache, time and money also had a blast at the lake finally. Best $30 i've ever spent.

Has to be great for a bass boat stroller but I've graduated to large pond/small lake fishing with my old dog partner along, I use a Colorado style single-person pontoon boat with a 30 lb. thrust trolling motor. At first, I simply used prop direction for steering - not recommended. So, a wooden rudder was constructed that was a significant steering improvement. However, a couple trips finding submerged stumps to bump as well as dragging raised bottoms, algal mat with aquatic flora collections and, well, endurance along with retaining stability became an issue. I came across this "Bullnose" rudder: nicely priced, seriously solid, easily adjusted on the drive-shaft. Was fun to take it from the box, easily mounted. Performance: the boat steered markedly better both in distance runs (requiring only a few "nudges" on the troller for course corrections) to working through cover-rich areas with nice direction control. I quickly came to trust the "Bullnose" model to deliver. I highly recommend this trolling motor addendum. Tight lines, Daryl

I would give it five stars, but I haven’t had it in the water yet. Installation was great. I put it on a Newport NK 180 Pro, and the clips fit perfectly. I trimmed a little off the corner (small end) of the rudder, and it mated right up to the motor. This install on my kayak is still in the trial-and-error phase, so I am still getting it all dialed in. I had the motor mounted too shallow. I was getting some cavitation, especially in reverse. I had to move the motor deeper to install the rudder, so that worked out fine. Now I’m waiting for the weather to warm back up so I can go back and try it all out. Before the NK 180 Pro install, I had a rudder on the back of my kayak. When the motor wasn’t running, I had no control over how my kayak drifted. Hopefully, now I will be able to control my drift as before.

The rudder installed in minutes and had a firm grip on the motor shaft. I had to cut off the top 2" of the rudder with fine hacksaw blade. This cut was just above the top clamp. This permitted me to raise the motor to my ideal height. Be advised that I am using trolling motor on a 17ft canoe and run the motor closer to the motor mount than most applications would. This modification went very smoothly. I sanded the cut with sandpaper to break the sharp edge. The results are ideal for the canoe. The canoe tracking and handling under power are greatly improved.

This rudder made a huge difference on my trolling motor. It tracks better when its on and off. Best purchase you can make if you have a trolling motor.

I use this rudder on my Minn Kota Traxxis 55 trolling motor, mounted on the transom of my 12 foot Jon boat. I definitely notice improved precision in the steering ability with this rudder addition. Especially with the flat bottom on the Jon boat, the overall improved steering is very noticeable. I use my boat to fish small lakes for bass so positioning the boat to fish specific areas is important to me. Even when the motor is not under power and I'm just coasting a little bit, the rudder helps provide some steering which is nice. Without the rudder I noticed I would have to make much larger turning motions with the tiller handle and I would have to use more power to get the desired steering response. I've had no issues with the rudder coming loose at all. It is very easy to install and adds virtually no weight to the motor. Even when motoring through thick grass and lily pads this rudder is solid. This was well worth the money to me.

Well, count me as one of the ones surprised that this hunk of plastic actually works! I have a 30# thrust trolling motor on a 14 foot canoe that does a great job -- unless the wind is blowing or I'm on a body of water with any kind of current. I bought this rudder with the thought that keeping the canoe going generally in the desired direction couldn't be any worse than without it. Wow, was I surprised!! I took this out on a large stream (more of a river...) on a day that was a bit windy and the water had a few ripples. I've had this set up (canoe, motor) for 15+ years and know how it'll react -- but when I turned on the trolling motor, turned it more than a quarter turn, I quickly went around in a circle!!! Without the rudder, I would have barely turned. No more over-compensating (or at least not as much) for the current. I was able to go almost straight. Not sure if maybe I'm imagining it, but it seemed like my trolling motor battery lasted longer, too. I can usually get 8 hours on a charge. We were out 6 hours and I still had 2/3 charge left. Great purchase - believe the positive reviews!

Used on kayak steering project

Me funcionó muy bien ennla dirección del kayak para el cual lo utilizo, muy buena calidad, muy buen material y se ve muy resistente.

I added this to the trolling motor on my 15ft square-stern canoe. It has made a significant improvement to the handling of the canoe. Very happy with the purchase.

good buy
