Default Prop Question

I just mounted a 6 horse kicker to my 19.5 ' Sea Nymph for trolling. I have a two fin prop and a three fin prop for the kicker. Which prop would be best for trolling?

mikmrnd,
I would think that a three blade would be better in handling the higher waves that do occur on lake erie vs the two bladed one. But I am far from being an expert.

Thanks,
Ron

i would think the 3 blade would be the best. but if you already have both then you can try them both and see which one works the best. let us know how it turns out.

I trolled with the two blade, because it was on the motor, and it did very well. I will give the three blade next time and see what the difference is.
