    any colors can catch some fish if your leader length, down speed and depth are correct. unless you are fishing where there isn't any fish. i would guess you probably need a down speed and temp unit to help you dial in your program

    can't tell what is what in the first pics. white double crush glow or a 2 face spin doctor with a minion sharkbait glow fly for cloudy/low light times. 2 face uv spin doc with a minion uv cotton candy fly when the sun is high and bright.these are some of my must haves.

    i put it like pic A but fish will hit it either way. a lot of different factors can lead to not catching

    the main difference is the dual processor that the carbon has. if you have a chirp ducer that has low and high frequencies the carbon can display both at the same time. the screen is better for viewing in the sunlight too.

    no problem. you can e-mail navico/simrad. i emailed them with some questions a few weeks ago and they replied quickly

    just looked again and you are right. don't see the in hulls there anymore. i would call airmar

    their costumer service is great. i e-mailed them when the brown trout candy craze was happening and i couldn't find any.two days later i got home from work and they were in the mailbox. don't forget about the long shallows they work better for me on my boat most of the time.

    got out today for our second trip of the year. we started out setting lines close to the outlet of the bay because we were marking a lot but couldn't get them to go.picked up once we passed shipbuilders and dropped again at webster park. marked fish there but again couldn't get a bite. trolled down a couple miles and found a good 75 yard stretch of water that was a half of a degree warmer and started putting them in the boat fast.no big ones. did lose one that was screaming out line and another that felt really good. hot baits were a rainbow trout yo zuri stick and a olive ghost husky jerk.bay rat long shallows took some fish. wrecking ball super slim was our best spoon.took a couple pictures until it got rough and keeping control of the boat became more important.

    i have the ranger with a 32" x 34" hoop (if i remember correct) with the coated net for summer and love it. the hooks just fall right out of it

    yes it gets pricey to buy everything you need at once.if you can't find any used rods and reels at the show then pick up some daiwa accudepth plus combos with the 47 size reel. they are a great reel for the money and you can use them for riggers,divers or planers.

    that guy was nuts. when i seen him pull in i thought he must have a quality wet suit. then he took off in a t-shirt and sweat pants.lol!!

    i pulled the cover off my lund this morning,threw in a battery and met my cousin at the launch. set lines in 10 fow close to shipbuilders and immediately started getting bit. fished 10 to 20 fow all day in some good small pockets of water holding fish. fish 3 to 6 pounds with a few a bit bigger. bay rat long shallow in blue tiger and emerald shiner patters took most of the bites along with some husky jerks that did well. love these bonus days in winter.

    hodges marine has pretty good prices on transducers
  21. shawn393
    check out the airmar website. i think you are looking for something like the B175M.
  22. shawn393
    you can find them a little cheaper but yes i agree they are pricey. after buying new electronics and rod holders this winter they aren't in my budget this year. cannon has a rebate program going on now. might be worth a look

    i really like the looks of them. i am a big fan of riggers that don't have black plastic cases.i checked out their website and the price goes up fast with upgrades. i really like the traxtech riggers too.speed isn't a big deal to me.i run big jons now and am happy with them. i think my next set of riggers will be the traxtechs.
  24. shawn393
    fish usa has them in the boat electronics section
