Hi guys, hope everyone survived the holidays. I was hoping to get some pros and cons on foot verse hand control trolling motors. I am working on a Lowe 1436 flat bottom that I'm planning to put a small deck up front for storage and probably a seat mount. The plan is for a bow mount TM and I've had good luck with Minn Kota and would probably stick with that brand. I usually like to fish standing rather than sitting so I didn't know if trying to opperate a foot control while standing in a somewhat narrow boat would be nerve racking rather than fun and relaxing. Any input would be appreciated
