When it comes to choosing the style of your next fishing boat there are two main choices: console or tiller. Both options offer you some very unique benefits and also some great similarities as well but, it ultimately comes down to the type of fishing you do and what you are looking to get out of your rig. I have been running a tiller boat for over 26 years so naturally, a tiller-style boat is my choice for guiding, filming and fishing with my friends and family. But why? Why choose a tiller over a console? That is specifically why I made this video. If you have been curious to see what benefits a tiller rig offers then this video is for you!
Here are the topics covered in this video (timestamped):
[2:53] The trim tab anode and steering
[3:55] Operating a big tiller rig without hydraulic steering
[6:14] Trolling functionality with a tiller
[8:42] Space-saving boat layout
[10:17] Increased storage space
[10:53] Conclusion - why I love a tiller rig!

Thanks for explaining the ease of the 90 hp tiller when properly trimmed. Most people who talk tiller don't explain the trim tab anode with the clarity which you did.

My current 1775 Pro Guide has more room than my old 20’ console boat.

Nice episode great tips Trim tab anode never heard of it Thanks for bringing that up. Can't wait to get me a tiller Had a console for 40 years maybe time to go shopping Keep em coming

@MuskyMastery 8 месяцев назад

Thanks Dave! Yes the trim tab anode really helps with torque pressure - even on a console

Excellent summary of advantages of a tiller boat. You sound like an old "spoonplugger" talking about feeling the bottom with your lure and making hairpin turns to follow the weed line. And it's not the boat that follows the weed line; it's the lure that should follow it. Thank you for *not * saying "coWnsole". It is a console.

@MuskyMastery 3 месяца назад

You’re right on the money man! Well said. Lure follows the weed line. The boat allows this to happen.

Great video Chas! Speaking of which, Purdue football needs to get back to the Tiller lifestyle!

Love the idea of a tiller. I live over by Lake Michigan where Salmon trolling in 2+ foot waves is not uncommon. If you were to let go of the tiller while trolling, how does it track? Will the waves make it want to pivot? Is there any way to lock the motor down so turning is a bit stiffer?

@no_regerts5176 3 месяца назад

There is a tension lever that you can lock it down with.

@MuskyMastery 2 месяца назад

Yes, Jordan there is an easy to use tension knob that you can tighten as needed for less or more movement. If I tighten it a bit, and would let go...it would not move. Even when it is loose it does not really move much at all. I will do a video on this for you this season - in heavy waves.

@andrewduncan2070 Месяц назад

How slow can you get the big motor down to when trolling? Always curious of that.

@JordanErickson-zm8dm 3 месяца назад

Love the idea of the tiller. I'm over in the Great Lakes where salmon trolling in 2+ foot waves isn't uncommon. If you were to let go of the tiller in large waves (when trolling), how does it track? Do waves want to push it back and forth? Is there a way to lock the motor down so it doesn't turn as easy?

@MuskyMastery 3 месяца назад

If I were on the Great Lakes I would go with hydraulic steering so you could lock it. But regardless, the 895T tracks very well in heavy waves. It rides super strong in chop!

@DoxB84 2 месяца назад

I fish Erie with a 90 tiller. It took me two seasons before I broke down and got a Uflex ZTF system.

@omieyouknowme 7 месяцев назад

Love my tiller, want a hard top or windshield but tiller just wont let go.

@MuskyMastery 7 месяцев назад

Nothing that a snowmobile helmet can’t fix !

@omieyouknowme 7 месяцев назад

@@MuskyMastery can't see the fish then. Heated grip helps but ya need some gear or a way to keep from getting wet when it gets rough.

@MuskyMastery 7 месяцев назад

@@omieyouknowme I just use the helmet for driving when it’s cold, not while fishing haha so it doesn’t get in the way of seeing fish. Yes you will get hit with rain more while driving a tiller…but you gain that space giving up the windshield

@@MuskyMastery ya prob why I have two tillers and looking at a third tinny he he. Tight lines

I thought it was interesting where you. Have your electronics mounted can you tell us about it

@MuskyMastery 5 месяцев назад

David thank you! Yes, the starboard side electronics in the rear are just an awesome location. What specifically would you like to know? I would love to answer any question you might have. Thanks!
