Lowrance TMB-S Trolling Motor Mounting Hardware

The Lowrance TMB-S Trolling Motor Mounting Hardware is a genuine Lowrance mounting solution designed to attach a compatible standard Skimmer transducer to the bottom of a trolling motor. Compact and purpose-built for sonar installations, the TMB-S gives anglers a practical way to move a compatible transducer from a conventional transom-style installation to the trolling motor.

Lowrance identifies the TMB-S as SKU 000-0051-45 and describes it as a trolling motor bracket for a standard Skimmer transducer. For current manufacturer information, see the official Lowrance TMB-S product page.

Convenient Trolling Motor Transducer Installation

Mounting a compatible Skimmer transducer on the trolling motor can provide sonar readings from the area around the trolling motor rather than relying exclusively on a transducer positioned at the stern.

This can be useful for anglers fishing from the bow who want their sonar transducer positioned closer to where they are actively maneuvering and fishing.

For more information about compatible sonar equipment and accessories, anglers can also explore the official Lowrance sonar and transducer accessories collection.

How to Use the Lowrance TMB-S

Lowrance documentation shows the TMB-S attached to the compatible transducer using the appropriate mounting hardware. An adjustable strap passes through the mounting bracket and wraps around the trolling motor. The transducer should be positioned so it points straight downward when the motor is in the water.

After mounting, route the transducer cable alongside the trolling motor shaft. Leave sufficient cable slack so the motor can turn normally without pulling or damaging the cable. The cable should also be kept clear of moving components and the propeller.

Always confirm transducer compatibility before installation rather than assuming that every Lowrance transducer will fit the TMB-S.
