  1. Yankee , I see there are at least 6 models of the helix 7 , with my description of my fishing which model would you suggest I go with .
  2. Thanks for the help yankee troller , the list of lakes is impressive with lakemaster , now how do decide where to mount it , it would be nice to have it on the dash for finding spots that I want to fish and mapping a shoal first and then to have it on the trolling motor while im up in the bow targeting bass .
  3. I fish the finger lakes alot mostly jigging lakers and my old X135 does a good job I can see my jig in 80 ft of water no problem and i can see the fish moving in and chasing , What im looking for is better detail when smallmouth fishing the finger lakes or lake ontario or the St Lawrence river finding shoals and drop offs , using my old lowrance doesnt give me the real picture you have to read alot into what its showing you.Mapping of some kind when you go to a new lake to help find the shoals and cover in the first place .I do have downriggers and a wire dipsey rig and leadcore onboard so salmon are in the picture too but probably not as much .
  4. Its time for new electronics trying to find a easy use unit thats capable of navionics or lakevue something that would shoals with decent detail dont do to much trolling but alot of jigging and dropshotting for bass , would the helix 7 be a good unit
  5. EKoselny thanks for the info on the maps , is that version available on my cell phone and and what does it cost , now i feel like I've been hiding under a rock all this time , my lowrance depth finders are pretty out dated and dont except chips so now i know what iv'e been missing out on !!! Thanks again
  6. Ive seen this app I have it on my phone under boat HD navionics do you have to buy a plan or can you use it in a restricted mode to check it out ,
  7. Has anyone stayed here or go there for the fishing on a regular basis ,I would like to get more info before I commit the few days of vacation I have to a place i haven't seen , thanks .
  8. Does anyone know of a good map of Henderson harbor that would include the area around association island and the shoals
  9. Ekoselny thanks for the info , sounds like it is a good spot is middle of September a good time to be up there for smallies
  10. Hey guys the association island area has always looked interesting to me for bass never been there though , trying to figure out if it would be a good place to try mid September for smallmouth , dont want to get blown off the water the whole trip but looks like there is some protected areas if you run towards Henderson harbor . Anybody familiar with the area know if it would it be a good place to stay for a few days bass fishing or are there better places back near the harbor or does the association island put you out closer to better fishing , thanks for any help .
  11. I thought there was a issue where NY didnt go along with coast guard approval on the electronic flare and wouldnt accept it
  12. I went with heavier tires and the price was really good , went from a imported kenda 6 ply to a Cooper 8 ply and they were 75.00 each, i wasnt having any trouble with old tires but they were weather checking on the sidewall
  13. Well its time for new flares again and bass pro and cabelas want 45.00 !!! I didnt check walmart yet , I couldn't find any updated info in a search , is new york accepting the electronic sos lite or do we have to have flares
