Brian,
I noticed that the front unit has no interference when the trolling motor is up. Maybe that's the key, and I should use it like that all the time.

Re: Sonar help
Hey, Jeff. Things are good, they haven't caught on to me yet. My transducer is transom mount. It's only three years old, but has been switched from one hull to another. Given the increase in performance I got when I changed out the front transducer, I think I may just try that first. Maybe there's a...

Re: beyond fizzing for deep bass....
Your idea sounds like a good one. But I would guess that fish, unlike humans, are designed for depth changes. That's why they have an "adjustable" swim bladder. They probably don't suffer the bends, or they wouldn't be able to chase prey to different levels, or evade bigger fish. But it wo...

Re: Yeabut...
You're right, it's not okay to move in on someone else if they're in a tourney, or otherwise. I would never do that. And if a tourney boat pulls up to a spot I'm on, and asks, chances are I will yield. It's all in how it's done. A few years ago I was fishing Big Cachuma Cove, way in the back, with m...

Marc, Three questions. First, since using two units is sooo common, and the 192-200 megahertz range is the best, why doesn't Lowrance, or Pinpoint, or Garmin, or somebody, offer sets for a boat with one at 192 and the other at 200?

Re: Sonar help
That does all make sense, Noluk. Thanks. I think I speeded up the front ping speed a while ago, and never slowed it back down, so that may help. I usually run it slower than the console, which I use when I'm running. I'll try cleaning the transducer, and see what happens. If all else fails, I'll put...

Seriously, it was a really fun format, and they were a great group of guys. If it is announced a little earlier next year, I'm sure more clubs would compete. It is a great format.
