If trolling popgear, 1-1.5mph is what works best for me. This is about as slow as any kicker motor will go or about 50% throttle on an electric. If trolling lures I'll forget the popgear and go 2-2.5mph because the lures won't really wiggle going any slower.
My experience has been that trout are lazy and will eat bait as it passes by but won't bother to chase it much. Its easier for them to just suck plankton.
