Yes, it covers all of that and more. It is the one for US and Canada. The $15.00 is a one time fee to buy the App. It turns my phone into a fully functional chart plotter. The detail with the enhanced maps add on is outstanding. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United mobile app.

The Navionics App I have on my iPhone was around $15.00. I would imagine that is the one you would use on a tablet as well. for an additional $3.99 a year you can get the enhanced maps which is awesome.

The shape of the tail is wrong for a pure coho IMO.

Mark, Personally, I would do that on spoon rods, but not flasher fly rods.

:-P In the immortal words of Sgt Hulka: Lighten up Francis. BTW, I don't have a Furuno on my boat.

Back in the mid 90's before the fleas showed up, all we ever ran on our rigger rods was 12 lb Trilene XT and many 30+ kings hit the deck. With a smooth, properly set drag and matched tackle, 17 isn't necessarily too light, but you can't try and horse them in.

As LongLine mentioned, unless you match the weight of the single to the weight of the treble it's replacing, you will change the action of the spoon. Sometimes you want to do this depending on the weight of the blank and what it's effective trolling speed is. Take an NK for example, they are a fairly heavy blank and it is almost impossible to run them too fast, but hang dead at slower speeds. Evil Eyes on the other hand are a very thin, light blank and have superb, fish catching action at slow speeds, but will spin out at the speeds an NK is effective at. If you try running both in the same spread one or the other isn't going to be running right. You can mitigate this to an extent by changing the weight of the hook. A heavier hook than the stock one will allow the slower running spoon to be run effectively at higher speeds and conversely, a lighter hook will allow the heavier spoon to have action at slower speeds. This may be something you want to do intentionally with your lures, but you have to do some on the water testing to make sure your swap doesn't mess up the action of a lure you've previously had good luck with. Just something to consider when swapping hooks out, if you want the spoon the run the same the same way and at the speeds you are used to running it at, you need to match the weight of the new hook as closely as possible to the weight of the hook it is replacing. I have a digital grain scale that I use for checking powder loads for reloading ammunition. These are very sensitive and can give you a good idea how much the weight of the hooks and thereby, the affect on the action may be.

Maybe he wants a good one this time?

1.8-2.2 is the hot zone on my boat with the Depth Raider most days.

Depth Raider and Subtroll both display .4-.5 slower at the same actual speed than the X4. Don't know which one or any are right, but it's really irrelevant as long as you can repeat what's working.

You mean 30A, right?

No, they aren't fast, but they are dependable. Wouldn't use heavier than a 12 lb weight on em. Even that will be like watching glaciers recede but they'll certainly get the job done. Tim

Actually, if that was during the day, that's not an unwarranted reaction. A bat out in the daytime is almost certainly rabid. If it was in the evening, near dusk.... not so much
