    Open water watch 2024

    Bump. How is it looking west of New Town. I have alot of break-in, calibrating electronics, and hopefully fishing to do.

    Livescope battery help

    Pricepoint would help the discussion. Most lithium battery makers make 30ah-60ah batteries that would work well for your needs. I had a posrtable 126 with Livescope powered by a 30ah lithium and it lasted all day with no worries. I am running a 16v 100ah Powerhouse Lithium for 2-12 inch...

    Back Straps

    My wife and I have been using the sous vide for 2-3 years. Reverse sear once pulling out of the water bath. We have not found a meat that is not fantastic with this method.

    Terrova how to external ducer

    Take a look at transducer Shield and Saver. I have to do that for my new Power Pole trolling motor. The style I bought does not have the built in transducer as an option.... so, I am looking at putting the Lowrance 3 in 1 transducer on the barrel of the trolling motor.

    Black Rifle Coffee Co. hates YOU!!!

    Black Rifle "Just Black" or Folgers "Black Silk" for me. Black Rifle started as a brand that tailored to military, etc; but has been sold to a larger corp. I dont give 2 shits and will continue to drink what my palate likes.

    Forward Sonar Mounting Set Up

    About the same size as other options out there.. 4:1 ratio turn of the handle means you dont have to reach outside the gunnel to turn your transducer 360 degrees.

    Forward Sonar Mounting Set Up

    I will be running a Brew City mount on the rear gunnel for my wife's Livescope. On the front of the boat I will be running the attached mount (below). It is new to the market. It is very expensive; but I utilize the FFS tech every day I am on the water so I didnt care about the cost...

    Side Imaging Graph Options?

    My opinion using all of them is that side imaging is a horse a piece. The right tweaking of setting and transducer placement they all shine compared to 5-6 years ago for SI. You would be served, even if you dont forsee utilizing FFS anytime soon, to get a unit that does have great FFS quality...

    Mid winter blues...

    Spent the winter turning a bedroom into a bathroom. Just got done last weekend. The new boat should be here in 2-4 weeks and then I have many hours of rigging. That should get me to some open water opportunities.

    Garmin, Lowrance, or Bird

    I have used Garmin 93sv and it was decent. Personally I wouldnt go less than 12 inch. As I get older my eyesight gets worse. Larger screen and higher end units with higher pixel counts are worth the $$ to me. I am running 8612 and 8616 Garmins and Live 12s from Lowrance.

    Garmin, Lowrance, or Bird

    I love fishing, boating, setting up boats, and proper break-in. The more I learn about my equipment the more fun I have. I am also fortunate that my wife loves to fish and has more rods than purses or other "girly" stuff so I get to go hog wild on our builds.

    Garmin, Lowrance, or Bird

    I have had Lowrance Active Target and Garmin Livescope with both the LVS 32 and LVS 34 transducers. Humminbird is light years BEHIND both Lowrance and Garmin in the FFS game. For all of my FFS (2 or 3 in the boat) I will be running Garmin. I will have Garmin 12 and Lowrance 12 on the dash...

    New fishing gear

    Power Pole has the option of a Lowrance HDI transducer built in. The PV is a Terrova style stow and deploy while the ZR is Ultrex style stow and deploy. Turning motors are the same. The ZR shaft length maxes at 60 while the PV goes to 72. Same issue with Minnkota related models; but many...

    New fishing gear

    As Bauer said, no 72 in the ZR (Ultrex style). I will be running the other PP Move PV in 72. I have been in constant discussion with the folks at PP and cannot see the 72 coming in the Move ZR anytime soon and a custom build is something they did not feel comfortable with.

    New fishing gear

    New boat, different brand bowmount, new brand of lithium batteries, and some new lure types to try.
