We built 2 or three over the years.
Find an old crappy trolling motor. cut off the shaft not cutting the wires inside.
undo the wires in the top of the unit, and pull them down / out of the cut shaft. Cut the ends off an extension cord, connect to the motor wires on one end and some sort of switch on the other. Use lots of electrical tape.

On the bracket, we have done everything from buying a bracket to making one by affixing 3in metal L brackets to the motor body.
If you go the L Bracket route, we used 3/4 in conduit, slipped over the bracket and secured with a hitch pin.

Takes like 5 minutes to set this home made crud up and is a huge pain in the butt.

End of the day, a jerk cord is 10X easier and more effective.
