ABSTRACT:
A trolling motor foot control apparatus is set forth to provide steering to a trolling motor by use of an associated reversing electric motor oriented orthogonally relative to the downwardly depending steering shaft of the trolling motor. The electric motor is provided with an axially extending worm gear cooperative with an internally threaded collar pivotally mounted relative to the trolling motor. A remote treadle control controls rotation of the electric motor to accordingly control desired rotation of the worm gear and accordingly control pivoting of the trolling motor for steerage purposes.
