Re: Recent improvements to my inboard
Hey Jeff- going through the hull with a transom mount like Chuck did. If the high dollar ducer is as good as they say it is then I believe you can see a flounder fart with it. I had mine in a bag of water for the last couple of weeks in my bilge and the thing works great. I siliconed the sucker in there on saturday and fished last night and I really cant believe how well the machine works. Saturday night I marked a nice blob in 14 ft of water and it wasnt 2 seconds later I caught another big red one like the picture. Although my boat is by no means fast (neither am I) I havnt lost bottom at any speed . The ability to change background colors really comes in handy if you fish at night, I use the black background and it is like a playstation 2 game- (CAN YOU TELL IF i LIKE IT>??? Used my buds x-15 the next night and there is absolutely no comparison. (no offence intended to anyone who might be using one- also in fairness they are combonation machines which I would rather have seperate stand alone units. I had my young son on board last night and we marked some big black drum and he hooked up into a (2)hour fight on 14 lb test which ultimately ended by cutting the line under my boat. Fish appeared to be in the 90/100lb range. He really needs some heavier line- anyways - Jeff, Im certain you will like it, the only problem I see is if you fish really shallow water <3' it doesnt mark well at all. clutter- see ya [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
