Abstract

A self-propelled troller having an elongate hull which is powered by a rear propeller for movement in a forward direction in water. An elongate tube in the troller extends from the bow of the hull rearwardly of, and below, the propeller. A fishing line adapted to be received slidably through the tube, in a bow-to-stern direction, is used to guide the troller toward the direction of pull on the line.
