Minn Kota Ultrex 112 Trolling Motor w/Micro Remote - Dual Spectrum CHIRP - 36V - 112LB - 45" — Product description
Experience Unmatched Control on the Water
Imagine gliding across the lake with effortless precision, holding your position against wind and current without drifting an inch. The Minn Kota Ultrex 112 with Micro Remote redefines trolling motor performance for dedicated freshwater anglers. Its innovative power steering mimics the feel of electric models but delivers through a reliable cable system, making long days on the water feel intuitive and fatigue-free. Paired with advanced GPS features, this 112-pound thrust powerhouse on a 45-inch shaft handles bigger boats in diverse conditions, from calm bays to choppy rivers.
Anglers rave about how it transforms fishing trips, letting you focus on the bite rather than boat handling. Whether you're targeting bass in shallow structure or walleye on deep contours, the built-in sonar and automation tools provide an edge that keeps you ahead of the fish.
Key Features That Set It Apart
Power Steering and Steering Lock for All-Day Comfort
The heel-toe foot pedal responds instantly to your movements, offering the smoothest steering you'll find in a cable-drive motor. Remove your foot, and the motor locks in place—no creeping back or constant corrections. This design shines during extended sessions, reducing leg strain and letting you maintain heading with minimal effort.
Spot-Lock with Jog: Your Electronic Anchor
Using i-Pilot GPS technology, Spot-Lock pins your boat to a GPS coordinate with 3-foot accuracy, even in 20 mph winds or strong currents. The included heading sensor enables Jog mode, shifting your hold position up to 5 feet in any direction via remote or pedal. Perfect for fine-tuning over schools of crappie or following a school of stripers without resetting.
Integrated Dual Spectrum CHIRP Sonar
Everything runs cleanly through the shaft—no exposed cables or transducers to snag. Dual Spectrum CHIRP scans at 83/200 kHz, revealing clearer fish arches, precise bottom hardness, and subtle structure compared to single-frequency sonar. It integrates seamlessly with Humminbird units via the One-Boat Network, overlaying motor data on your screen for smarter decisions.
Lift-Assist and Durable Build
Stowing and deploying feels half the weight thanks to the nitrogen-charged spring. The composite shaft flexes under impacts but never breaks—Minn Kota backs it with a lifetime guarantee. Paired with the Weedless Wedge 2 prop, it powers through weeds without fouling.
Advanced Networking and Control Options
Link up with Humminbird fish finders for the One-Boat Network, unlocking contour-following paths, auto-navigation to waypoints, and speed/steering overrides from your display. The Micro Remote offers quick access from anywhere on the boat, while the mobile app on iOS or Android provides wireless control, software updates, and battery monitoring. Digital Maximizer tech stretches battery life up to 5x by optimizing power output to your exact speed needs.
Ideal for Serious Freshwater Pursuits
This setup excels on multi-species boats from 20-28 feet. Bass anglers love Spot-Lock for flipping docks; walleye pros use AutoPilot for precise trolling speeds; muskie hunters appreciate the thrust for fighting big fish in current. In real-world tests, users report holding spots in 2-knot currents where lesser motors fail, making it a game-changer for tournaments or solo trips.
Battery and Power Tips
Running on 36 volts with a 52-amp max draw, pair it with three 12V deep-cycle batteries in parallel for optimal runtime. Variable speeds help conserve power—dial down for finessing jigs, ramp up for quick repositions. Always check your battery meter's real-time feedback to avoid surprises.
