    Country Music

    Ditto on Hank 3. Kick ass country and can sound like his grandfather when he wants to. Also Jon Pardi, Luke Combs, Jamey Johnson, & Aaron Lewis. Can't stand most of the stuff played on the radio!! I tell my daughters if they don't have a steel guitar it ain't real country it's just pop with a twang.

    Fish Finder Question

    I have the echomap 93SV and love it. its really going to come down to personal preference. I used to run birds but switched to Garmin and love the user interface.

    Sunglasses!

    I bought a pair of Oakley's with the polarization for water a few years ago. I spent over $200 on them but they have saved my a$$ on the river more than once. Not sure if other companies have this same polarization but it is definitely worth it.

    Bow upgrade to garmin

    Here are a couple of links I found searching Garmin Lowrance lawsuit. There are a lot of message boards talking about it but it is from a couple of years ago when it first started. https://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2018/02/07/garmin-navico-patent-lawsuit-ends-crosslicensing.html...

    Bow upgrade to garmin

    I haven't seen it in person but was going to put another 93sv on the bow and was doing some research on prices when I came across the info on the lawsuit with lowrance. I believe the new ones ship with the 3 crystal again. If you do a little looking there are some chat rooms that tell you which...

    Bow upgrade to garmin

    Check the transducer to see if it is the 2 or 3 crystal one. the 2 crystal one has terrible down imaging as it combines the 2 side images for the down. that's probably why it is so cheap.

    Need to upgrade Electronics

    Make sure it has the 3 crystal transducer. for a while they were selling them with the 2 crystal one because of the Lowrance lawsuit. I have an older one with the 3 crystal and love it. They say the HD down sucks with the 2 crystal one. I am not sure of the ducer numbers but with a little...

    Bow upgrade to garmin

    I have a 93SV on the dash and I love it. It is 3 years old so I'm not sure if they have changed at all with the Transducer fight that was going on. The side imaging is awesome if you have the 3 crystal ducer. I'm not sure how it is for the down imaging if you are using the ducer on a trolling...

    What's your sonar setup?

    I run a Garmin 93sv. On the big water it is gps on half and the other half is split between he down and traditional. If I a pitching on the river I use side imaging to look for them and mark where to pitch towards.

    what do you use for bite indecator on windy days???

    Old prescription bottle with a little hook screwed in the top. You can add or remove sand or rocks depending on how windy it is. Paint them a bright color though because if they don't pop off when you pick the rod up they sometimes fly a little ways when you set the hook.

    Best boat shoes

    My shoes are Sanuk flip flops or I have a pair of slip ons. They dry quick and you can throw them in the wash when they start stinking to high heaven.

    Trade or Sell Yourself?

    Another thing to consider is if the stars align and you find the vehicle you want to purchase at the same time you find a buyer for yours is to do an "in & out" with the dealership. you get the extra money from selling it outright and the tax savings. I have done this a few times and the last...

    Garmin Electronics

    I went to a 93SV last year and love it. The map that is preinstalled is ok but have been using the auto map feature as I go out. The side imaging is way above what Humminbird has in my opinion. The main reason I went with Garmin is for the Panoptix which I am going to be hopefully pulling the...
