jgrenier, there is a small slot fitted calibration screw on the back of the receiving unit(the speed dial) that is accessible once you remove the cover. My probe was running slow recently so I took it on a friend's boat and re-calibrated it to his accurate unit. Might not be the issue, but worth a try. Tank
Now that you mention it Ray...it was take the F#@$en picture!! Hey Rob, nice derby bow! No I haven't been out for smallies on Ontario since I started doing the King thing. I do fish for them on Keuka. Their decline in the lake in general was what prompted me to start king fishing...and I never looked back!! Good luck finding them, I hope you do!! Tank (Andy).
Thanks guys! Scott I have to thank you and should have previously for your report last Sunday. It gave me a heads up on Tuesday. Even though I do a ton of North/South trolls to find fish, your report gave me a great starting point!! Much appreciated! And ditto on your success this week! Tank
Thanks guys! Tom, from what I saw this week and today, you should have no problem. There are a ton of fish out there right now. Nice report Tuesday, I was outside of you in 220-280 all day. Have fun!! Oh, I forgot to mention that the smallest fish in the pics above took me out 300 feet...pretty spunky little dude! Tank
Fishing has been excellent out of Sandy all week. Today the fish were a little more scattered, but we found some good ones. Finished at 11:30 going 12 for 14, fishing four rods. Mostly Kings with one brown and one really nice steelie that got thrown back without a pic due to a double, probably 14#'s. Fish came in 85-160 ft. of water from 37-55 ft. down. Hottest setup was the 42ft. rigger with a mag purple pounder and only wire to go twice was a green and silver spinny with an atomik hammer fly out 120 on a 2 setting. 2.25 for speed as was the case all week. Temp was 45-46 down 42-55 ft. in all depths. Hers a few pics
You don't want to know what I was saying
This picture does not do this fish justice!

.....your screen name was way too tempting! As far as a fish off goes...smallmouth are too easy! ..just kidding, I have spent the better part of 30 years catching them, they are the man..I mean fish! Tank
Doublehaul, what is the diameter like compared to malin 7 strand?(if you have used) and what kind of depth penetration does it have verses 7 strand? ie. does it go as deep? Thanks, Tank
I love mine too, and Mark I feel your pain..I lost my first chrome 15#er earlier this season....My crotch caught the handle on the scotty( ) and sent the shark too fast into the water and snap....did manage to keep my brand new subtroll probe though!! Tank
FLXT, I don't know about Candg. Lake but on the big O, you couldn't pay me to paint my shark black, even though my other rigger has a black one. The chrome side has taken significantly more and bigger kings. I think it is all chance, but I have no reason to experiment. Tank
FLXT, yeah I was probably a little hard on him, maybe we will dope him up next time. Seasquirrel, thanks for the nice comments. I am pretty anal about getting good pics..and it's not always easy, I agree! Tight lines, Tank
You can't see them with the cover on anyway. I got a bert's track for each side and four satin finish, silver tubes. I'll be adding more in the future. I ran four dipseys off them today for the first time, great product. Thanks again! Tank
After going 15 for 20 out of Sandy today, I went home to the new house w/pond and did some real fishing . This was the result
Drew almost caught a fish he has nicknamed "Ginormous bass" too!!
