I only use my electric when trolling for trout (ie: slow). I steer with the main motor, and keep my electric bow-mount pointed straight ahead. It's always worked fine for me...
My batteries are VMax Tank AGM's (x2 for trolling motor). They last as long as I troll -- which most days is around 4-5 hours. I've never run out of juice yet.
