Prop is everything. The best all around fishing prop we have ever run on that motor is the PowerTech REB3 in a 12 pitch. The ported motors turn that prop about 6400-6600 rpm. Stock motors will turn it close to 5900 or so. And before anyone asks, it's not worth the cost to port that little motor. I have done a few, just not worth the cost. Porting will gain abut 2-3 mph, not worth it.
