Lowrance Recon Mount for ActiveTarget 2 Transducers

If you're running ActiveTarget or ActiveTarget 2 on a Lowrance Recon trolling motor, this is the mount that gets the transducer where it needs to be. It bolts straight to the ActiveTarget attachment points already built into the Recon lower unit, so there's no drilling and no guesswork. Lowrance designed the Recon and this bracket to work together, and it shows in how cleanly the whole thing goes on.

The reason most anglers buy this mount is the view. ActiveTarget is live sonar, and live sonar is only as good as where the transducer is pointed. This bracket adjusts between Forward, Down, and three Scout positions, Scout Shallow, Scout Mid, and Scout Deep. Forward is what you'll live in when you're hunting fish out ahead of the boat and watching your bait swim into the strike. Down gives you a clean picture of what's directly under you. The Scout positions widen things out so you can scan structure and cover as you idle across a flat or a point. Being able to switch between those looks without pulling the transducer or re-rigging is what makes a live-sonar setup usable through a full day on the water. You adjust the mount, not your whole rig.

Every one of those positions has a clear alignment indicator built into the mount. That matters more than it sounds. Once you find the angle that works for how you fish, you can come back to it every trip without fiddling. Forward and Down both sit at a true 0-degree offset, so what you see on the screen lines up with where your bait actually is. For anyone who's spent a season learning to read forward-facing sonar, that accuracy is the whole point.

The kit is complete. You get the Recon motor mount sub-assembly, the mount arm sub-assembly, an adapter arm, a cable routing arm, coiled tubing, and all the assembly hardware. The cable routing arm and coiled tubing are the parts people forget to think about. They keep the transducer cable managed and off the prop, which saves you from chafing and snags down the road. Route it once, do it right, and you won't think about it again.

It fits both the original ActiveTarget and ActiveTarget 2 transducers, and it works with all Recon trolling motors. This makes sense for just about any Recon owner running live sonar, from bass boats and aluminum jon boats to bigger multi-species rigs and pontoons set up for serious fishing. If live sonar is part of how you find and catch fish, a solid, repeatable mount isn't optional. It's the difference between a picture you trust and one you're always second-guessing.

A couple of install notes from the water. Take your time squaring the bracket up, especially on aluminum hulls where a little misalignment shows up as transducer wobble once you're on plane. Snug the hardware down properly and check it after your first few outings, the way you would with any new rigging. And if you're routing the cable through tight gunwales on a center console, a spare grommet or two keeps everything from chafing. It's the kind of mount you rig once at the start of the season and forget about, which is exactly what you want from a piece that's holding your most important electronics.

One thing to know before you order. This is the standard ActiveTarget 2 mount. If you're running the larger ActiveTarget 2 XL transducer, Lowrance makes a separate XL-specific mount for that, so match the bracket to the transducer you actually own. For everyone on a standard ActiveTarget or ActiveTarget 2 setup with a Recon, this is the right piece, and it turns a good live-sonar setup into one you can actually trust shot after shot.
