Minn Kota Ultrex

Ultrex is a premium line of bow-mount trolling motors developed by Minn Kota, a brand that revolutionized the fishing industry. Known for its 'Power Steering' technology, the Ultrex combined the traditional foot pedal control found on cable-steer motors with modern GPS-driven electronic features like Spot-Lock. This allowed anglers to have tactical precision while also benefiting from autonomous boat positioning.

The Minn Kota brand originated in 1934 in Fargo, North Dakota, taking its name from the border of Minnesota and North Dakota. Today, manufacturing for Minn Kota products, including the Ultrex, is primarily centered in Mankato, Minnesota, maintaining a strong 'Made in the USA' heritage. The brand is a key pillar of Johnson Outdoors, a global leader in outdoor recreation equipment.
