MotorGuide’s BULLDOG™ Now Packs a Bigger Bite

TULSA, Okla. (July 18, 2008) -- MotorGuide’s popular and compact BULLDOG trolling motor now provides a bigger underwater punch with 54 pounds of thrust. Upgraded from its original 40 pounds of thrust, the BULLDOG packs MotorGuide’s legendary reliability, along with plenty of power, into a minimal amount of space.

The value packed BULLDOG offers pond hoppers 360-degree, rack-and-pinion, foot-control maneuverability through stumps and weedy obstacles for hands-free fishing. The one-of-a-kind trolling motor features a foot-control pedal mounted on the bow or transom via an economical, aluminum transom mount built to take a pounding.

One 12-volt battery, the right choice of lures and a good excuse to escape the chores at home is all you need to get the most out of this compact and fully capable small craft powerhouse. Simply and easy to rig this motor makes any small boat a fishing machine for under $300.
