This review is from: Minn Kota MKP 6 Prop 2061125 Weedless Wedge (Sports)
I have a Minn Kota Endura 30 (2004 model) which came stock with just a regular prop. At a lake near my house, the water is rather shallow in the bass/pickerel fishing areas, which means the thick weeds are very dense near the top of the water. On three trips to the lake the stock prop would become so bogged down with weeds wrapping around it that my brother and I literally had to give up on the motor and use paddles to get through the weedy areas.After the third trip enough was enough and we found this prop. Somehow their claim seemed far too good to be true, especially knowing how dense and tough the weeds are at the local lake. But, for $23 (after shipping), we figured it was worth a shot. The first thing that was obvious was that the length and width of the blades is significantly larger (perhaps 30%) than the stock prop. Also, the curvature and surface curvature is much more pronounced. Still, it was hard to imagine any prop spinning in those weeds and not grabbing them and wrapping them around itself. Last night we took our maiden voyage with the new prop (and we took a third fisherman with us, a first). Right out of the launch there's a very large weed field so I headed straight for it. First thing I noticed was the speed. The larger prop seemed to propel us faster despite having the weight of an extra person onboard! But most importantly, we blazed nearly unimpeded right through several hundred yards of weeds! The prop worked almost magically! We spent the next 3 hours maneuvering through some of the hardest-to-reach areas with no issues. The only time weeds wrapped around the prop was when I put the motor in reverse, but even then, the weeds didn't seem to slow our backward progress. And when I switched back to forward, those weeds unwrapped from the prop and were flung away. I didn't have to pull the motor out of the water to untangle the prop even once all night long! Truly amazing! Worth every penny! Well done Minn Kota!

Weedless prop,

This is a great weedless prop. you can watch it just "wedge" the weeds out of the way. No more lifting the trolling motor to clean off the weeds. Besides that the price I got it for on Amazon was cheaper than I found anywhere else.

This review is from: Minn Kota MKP 6 Prop 2061125 Weedless Wedge (Sports)
I bought this MPK-6 2061125 to replace MPK-2 prop 2061121 and from the start I felt sorry that I did not break old MPK-2 earlier. The MPK-6 is larger, smoother and much more defined, not to mention the weedless capability seems to be 100% according to some reviews (I did not have a chance to test that yet). In case you get confused about proper sizing for previous production motors, you can use chart from Minn Kota site and go by diameter of motor and diameter of shaft, which is pretty much all you need to find proper propeller. I installed it on Model 35, older version motor, and immediately noticed much better thrust. Please consider that you cannot change the laws of physics - more push will also cause more resistance therefore more juice drain from the battery, but since weedless part works better, all calculates well. I am getting the same push on no.3 as I used to on no.4 speed with old MPK-2 prop. One more thing: this MPK-6 prop came with nut, washer and 1/8 inch cross insert for the motor shaft. That's at least 6 bucks extra if you need it purchased separate. This is cool deal considering some other places try to sell you barefoot prop and then fine print extra parts you may need some day. I purchased two of MPK-6 2061125. The first reason was excellent price from Amazon with null ship fee for two, and the second reason I found later - it says on the back of the package MADE IN USA.
