Lowrance 2-Blade Weedless Prop for RECON
Lowrance 2-Blade Weedless Prop for RECON Product Description
Upgrade your RECON trolling motor with the precision-engineered 2-blade weedless propeller, designed specifically to conquer thick vegetation without skipping a beat. Anglers who frequent weed-choked waters know the frustration of props that bog down or tangle— this prop slices through grass, milfoil, and hydrilla like a hot knife through butter, keeping you on the fish longer.
Key Features That Set It Apart
- Weed-Shedding Design: The aggressive blade geometry and cupped tips actively deflect weeds, reducing cavitation and maintaining steady thrust even in the thickest cover.
- Versatile Performance: Optimized for both freshwater lakes and brackish saltwater bays, ensuring reliability across diverse fishing environments.
- Durable Construction: Built with high-impact composite materials that resist corrosion and withstand the rigors of repeated strikes against submerged logs or rocky bottoms.
- Balanced Efficiency: Two blades deliver smooth, low-RPM power for stealthy approaches to shallow-water structures, ideal for finesse tactics like flipping jigs or pitching soft plastics.
Why Choose This Prop for Your RECON Setup?
Imagine gliding silently through a cabbage weed bed, your RECON motor humming steadily as the prop powers past without a hitch. This isn't just a replacement part—it's a game-changer for backwater bass chasers, walleye hunters in stained rivers, or redfish stalkers in coastal marshes. It restores full throttle response, minimizes battery drain from strain, and extends motor life by preventing overloads. Users report fewer stops to clear debris, translating to more hooksets and bigger limits.
Real-World Applications
Lake Fishing: Perfect for pressured ponds where aquatic plants dominate—pair it with spot-lock for hands-free weedline drifting.
River Runs: Handles current-swept grass beds without losing bite.
Saltwater Flats: Resists marine growth for consistent push in skinny water.
Simple Swap for Maximum Results
Installation is straightforward: Remove your stock prop, align the keyway, secure with the nut and cotter pin, and you're ready. No special tools required, and it mates perfectly with RECON shaft sizes for a vibration-free fit. Pro tip: Inspect the shear pin regularly to protect your motor from unseen obstacles.
Care Tips for Longevity
- Rinse thoroughly after saltwater use to prevent buildup.
- Store in a dry, shaded spot to avoid UV degradation.
- Balance check after heavy impacts—uneven wear leads to noisy runs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this 2-blade weedless prop compatible with all RECON trolling motors?
Yes, it's engineered exclusively for RECON models in both freshwater and saltwater configurations. Always double-check your motor's shaft specs for a perfect match.
What makes this prop truly weedless?
Its specialized blade pitch and flared edges actively shed vegetation on contact, preventing wraps and maintaining consistent RPMs through heavy cover like lily pads or coontail.
Can I use it in saltwater environments?
Absolutely—its corrosion-resistant materials hold up against saline exposure, making it a reliable choice for inshore bays and estuaries.
How does it compare to a 3-blade prop?
The 2-blade version prioritizes weed clearance and low-end torque over top-speed grip, excelling in overgrown areas where multi-blade props often clog.
Is it compatible with GHOST trolling motors?
No, this prop is designed solely for RECON motors—GHOST requires its own proprietary hardware.
How easy is the installation process?
It's a quick DIY job: Slide off the old prop, insert the new one onto the shaft, tighten the nut, and insert the cotter pin. Takes under 5 minutes with basic tools.
Does it affect battery life or motor speed?
It optimizes efficiency by reducing drag from weeds, often improving runtime and providing smoother power delivery across all speeds.
