Time to replace the 1990 Lowrance.I have some points at Cabelas, so will probably buy there.

I fish lakers and landlocks Cayuga, walleye and bass on Oneida, everything on Otisco and occasionally Ontario.

Thinking about the Lowrance® Hook2 7 SplitShot Sonar/GPS Combo or the Lowrance® Hook2 7 TripleShot™ U.S. Inland Sonar/GPS Combo.

Should I spend the extra $100 on the Side Scan capability?

The input from the members  of this forum has been very useful.

Thank you

Thank you for the input. Your comments have been very educational. I had no idea the lure speed 80 ft down could be so much different than the surface speed. I should have specified the type and location of trolling I plan to do. My boat came with downriggers, but I plan to do most of my trolling on the surface in the winter months on Cayuga Lake. My boat came with a 1990 Lowrance fishfinder. So before I invest in a Fish Hawk or Depth Raider, I should upgrade my fish finder with one that has a speed monitor.

I just looked for fish finders and am already confused, so I'll probably ask for recommendations in a new post.

Thank you again for the input and recommendations

Need recommendations for monitoring speed while trolling, please, I used an etrex years back, but would like to know if there are more accurate methods. There is no speedometer on my fish finder. Thank you in advance.

Thank you fellas. Spooled up 2 reels with 16# Big Game and 2 with 10# Sufix. Really appreciate the input.

Trolled from Myers to Milliken. Caught one ding LL about 10" long.

Watched 3 guys vertical jigging in 100 ft of water in front of Miliken. Watched them pull a big Laker, a  brown and a __ in 15 minutes.

So now thinking about a post asking for vertical jigging recommendations. lol

Finally got a kicker motor and getting ready to start trolling on Cayuga Lake.

Stripping the old off my downrigger poles.

Any recommendations for type and poundage of fishing line would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Gary

I need a 24 inch min. Thanks for measuring.

Can you tell me the distance (inches) from the transom to the cavitation plate ? Thanks

Do you know the distance from the inside, top of the transom clamp to the cavitation plate (above the prop) ?

Can you tell me the shaft length from the top of the transom clamp to the cavitation plate just above the prop? Thanks

I used 1"x8" pvc boards similar to Amish boards and those suckers pull. Only sticks out of the water about 1 1/2".

I'm not familiar enough with planar boards to know if those are good features. Are pulling and depth good features? Thank you for helping.

Appreciate any input on using PVC for DIY planar boards. Thanks
