where are the day two/final standings?

norcalracer

Are you mechanically inclined? Well heres why i ask; with the high price of a new outboard or repairs to a older outboard there are a few things you should do.First of all do or have done a compression check on the motor, this could save you thousands in the long run.Second would be to make sure a t...

Markley Cove,PLeasure cove ( the best rite now),Steele park,Putah Creek. CApell Free launch is closed! Steele Park may close soon!

norcalracer

yea im sure thats just my luck. They are sending me a new unit!

norcalracer

I run a mobil marine repair, and have bad luck with these units both the 5 and 7.I run hds's with zero issues.I have a brand new 5 on a customers boat it worked for first 4 hours then locked up. Lowrance said it needs new 4.0 software downloaded. Tried put in micro sd and it will not work said file ...

I have a 2002 205 dvs and love it, you dont see many not sure why but great boat 7'3" rods on one side and 8" rods in pass side.The front deck is a bit shorter than the 520 but has a good size Rear deck. it measures 20"6"

norcalracer

Well i hooked up hds gen 2 to the stock intergraded transducer on my motorguide and the result is less than perfect for sure. Im not sure if im missing something on the adjustments but its just nothing like my other unit> Looks like i have to run a cord down the trolling motor after all!

norcalracer

has anyone used the universal transducer on a motorguide for a front HDS gen 2 sonar?

norcalracer

its just dry camping, no water or electric or sewer hook ups and they have no launch ramp either. you would have to launch at capell cove free launch to get there with your boat.

Kenneth Kraft in redding he is a bass guy and knows what you need and will load you up on all coverage he is farmers and insurance is foremost I got all real high numbers and high equipment mounted and not mounted to boat (gear) for 600 a year. And i mean alot of coverage!

norcalracer

i think i will just dissconnect the motor guide sonar from the current nonw hds 5'" and use it for the new hds. i can still use the 5 for gps/lake maps i think or just not use it at all

norcalracer

i found the pdt-wbl but it says its a single frequency 200 khzwith built in temp. Is this the rite one to put on trolling motor? thanks

norcalracer

i forgot to mention i am also running a panel mounted 5" gps graph up front as well (non HD) also should i mount the hds solid up front or with the large RAM mount?

norcalracer

I currently have a gen 2 hgs 8 at the helm with down/side scan ect.i purchased a second matching unit to put on the front of my boat.Question i have is what should i do as far as transducer and or other connections between the two units. i have a motor guide trolling motor with built in transducer b...

I have been raising it up before starting the motor up, but this time the wind was blowing so hard i wanted to ire up the motor and get in a little deeper water first. And that was it idledout put on my life vest and just forgot about the trolling motor.I hope to never do it again.

norcalracer

Whats your routine when pulling up electric motor before firing up big motor to move spots? I have did this twice now. I was so mad it ruined my day.Motor is fine but i got soaked and felt like a idiot.Thinking of a red light on dash hooked to a micro switch on trolling motor.

norcalracer

I had a tourney sat. i was throughing my new S Waver 200. About the 3rd cast i starting my retrieve and something just felt weird.I brought it closer to find the rear half of the bait gone.Im so glad i didnt hook a big fish with this thing at this happened. check your 200's maybe yank hard on the re...

It was a tough day today over 115 teams and 1/4 of the teams were either not weighing in or had bags of 2 and 3 fish. The winning weight was just about 22 lbs. They were the only ones in the 20's, Big fish was a 7 +. We were on fish on tuesday and the cold front came and a little rain friday and i c...

I just installed on my ranger a hds 8 with lss 1. I went to clear lake this past weekand and did some playing around with the graph.i got my left and right switched over and can get to most things i want. im just not sure about the basic set up adjustments. I never did mark a fish on the sonar so no...

norcalracer

First of all take it back to shop,and request that they go water test after repair, But i would guess its only running on half the cylinders they may have got a faulty part or a used part or a bad connection on one of the power packs.

norcalracer

get a 4 x4 atv or utv they will move most all boats under 4000 pounds. I have launched numerous boats with a atv

norcalracer

So last question, im guessing with the step being so flat across the lss being mounted perfectly dead center has little importance? mine would be a couple inches off with the drains and other sender mounted under there.

norcalracer

norcalracer

Not that the mounting matters much but its not lss 2 just the lss-1 system.I have a drain dead center under neath from the gunnel area so the laa will have to be mounted slightly off center.I have done some reading and there are some others saying that the lss needs to be at water level and also plu...

i am in the process of mounting my LSS-2 under neath the rear stepin my 2003 ranger 205vs. The dealer told me to mount under the step with a couple screws and silicone real good between lss and hull with the wire facing rearwardn then go into settings and swap the left and right since its mounted ba...

norcalracer

Question for the guys that caught fish? I was there just trying out a boat and got no bites what crankbaits were succesfully used and approx what depth were the fish hanging out?
