I purchased a boat that had a trolling motor mounted on the bow and has since been removed. How does one go about repairing those mounting holes in the hull?

Fiberglass, aluminum, wood.......... what are the holes in?

You could use a marine epoxy stick and tear off a chunk, knead it and stuff it into the holes........

Back the holes on the underside with a small piece of fiberglass cloth and tape it there and fill the hole with resin from the top then use a gelcoat repair to hide them forever.....

In an aluminum hull you could have them welded up or use PC-11 or JB weld to fill them......

There are ways
