  1. Thanks for the quick reply.

     

    Here is more detail:

     

    Ambient temperature from transduce works, but is not picking up surface speed from transducer nor is the transducer picking up down speed/temperature from probe.

     

    I could care less about surface speed as I will get that on my fish finder, but the down speed/temperature is needed.

     

    So it could be:

    * bad transducer not picking up probe and also not feeding surface speed to head unit

    * bad probe - although probe does have blinking led when metal tips are moistened

    * bad head unit not receiving information (except ambient temperature from transducer)

     

    Hard to diagnose with out a working setup to rule things out.

     

    I worked with Fish Hawk folks who had me do a reset of the head unit and that went through the entire reset routine successfully, but still same result.

     

    Have any other ideas/suggestions?

     

    Thanks!

  2. This is an odd request but I am having problems with my Fish Hawk unit.  I have gone through all the self-diagnostic steps suggested by Fish Hawk which seems to confirm that there is indeed something not working.  Their suggestion to further debug the problem (head unit, transducer, probe, cable) is to reach out to someone that that has a working unit and since the components are interchangeable use the working unit to diagnose which component is not working by swapping them.  The Fish Hawk x4 is not currently installed on my boat so I can take it with me.

     

    Would anyone be willing to assist me in trying to figure out what might be wrong with my Fish Hawk System?

     

    Thank you.

    Been fishing powdermill for almost 5 weeks straight now centerpinning, and haven't been skunked, I've been fishing jigs natural colors, and white. Red worms work good. I've been fishing at shady rest, the place with the playground and the ski hill.

     Thanks for the information, any sweet spots or holes that might hold fish?

     

    Thanks again.

     

     

  4. Powder Mill Park Derby - Advice??

    HI All:  I am getting some Dad's and boys (10-12) together this Saturday to fish in the Powder Mill Park Fishing Derby.  I have not fished in this derby since I was about 10 with my Dad.  From my limited memory I remember fishing with Velvetta cheese.  Has anyone fished this area or this derby and can give advice for the best thing to fish with so our boys catch fish?

     

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

  5. Looking to take my daughter out perch fishing  - looking on advice on where around Rochester we can see a lot of action to keep the interest while we are out.  Any location - rig setup welcome.

     

    Thanks in advance!!

  6. So any update on the Smelt Run - Has it started - ?  How long does it last?  It has probably been 20 years since I went smelting last back in high school, would love to take my kids to do it ...

  7. Love the forums first post/question from me.

    The last couple of years, I have taken my 12 year old daughter and 14 year old nephew out to small mouth fish and basically caught a sun tan. Looking for advice on fishing for smallies on lake ontario around Sandy creek. Any advice on technique and location would be much appreciate. If I take them out again and we catch nothing fearful it will be their last time. All we seem to catch were gobies.

    Thanks in advance !!
