Description
⚓ Garmin's newest flagship bow-mount trolling motor — 100 lbs of brushless thrust, improved multi-band GPS anchor lock, Spy Pole compatibility, Power-Pole integration, and BOTH foot pedal and remote included in the box.
The Garmin Force Pro is the latest evolution of Garmin's Force trolling motor platform, purpose-built for serious bass anglers and tournament pros. This is the Black 50"-shaft model (SKU 010-03011-00), priced at $4199.99.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's new about the Force Pro vs the original Force?
Force Pro is the latest generation with: improved multi-band GPS for tighter anchor lock, Spy Pole compatibility, Power-Pole integration, calm-water cable unwrap, reverse prop spin for vegetation shedding, lighted shaft cap indicator, auto-forward deployment, and the updated GT56UHD-TR all-in-one transducer.
What's the difference between the 50" and 57" shaft?
Fit to your boat. Measure from top of bow mount surface to waterline, add 8" if you fish rough water. 50" fits most bass boats with lower bow profiles. 57" works for taller bow boats or rough water. Both share identical motor, features, and performance.
Does the Force Pro come with a foot pedal?
Yes - unlike the Force Kraken (remote only), the Force Pro includes BOTH a wireless foot pedal AND the handheld remote. Plus BOTH propellers: high-efficiency for open water and weedless for vegetation. Very complete package out of the box.
What is Spy Pole compatibility?
Garmin's Spy Pole is a newer pivoting pole system for stealth fishing approaches. Force Pro integrates with it - relevant for serious bass and muskie anglers who want quieter approaches. Spy Pole hardware sold separately.
What about Power-Pole integration?
Networking a compatible Garmin chartplotter with a Power-Pole shallow water anchor and the Force Pro lets you control both systems seamlessly - deploy the Power-Pole from the trolling motor remote, auto-trigger at waypoints, etc. Great for shallow-water bass and redfish.
What transducer comes with the Force Pro?
Built-in GT56UHD-TR pre-installed in the shaft. High-wide CHIRP (150-240 kHz, 350W, 800' freshwater depth), ClearVu UHD (455/800/1000 kHz, 500W, 400'), SideVu UHD (455/800/1000 kHz, 500W, 500'). Same transducer sold separately at $474.99, bundled in the motor.
Is the motor quiet enough not to spook fish?
Yes - brushless design is exceptionally quiet. Multiple pro anglers publicly praise the Force Pro's silent operation vs competitors. Above-water and below-water noise is significantly lower than brushed motors. Reverse prop spin for anchor lock also eliminates the constant motor whine of traditional systems.
