Default best price/performance deep cycle battery for trolling motor?

I am looking to buy a deep-cycle battery to run a 55 lb trolling
motor (45A max/12V) which will be used as the only motor for an
inflatable boat for fishing.

I am converging so far on Optima D34/78 (gives you 120 min reserve
at 25A, so it should run motor for 1 hrs at highest power).
It can be had for 144 $

What do you say:

- Can I get a better battery or similar one for
better price?

- Is the battery sized properly for this motor/usage (its my first one,
so I dont know).

Regards,
Evgenij
