Tom I am wondering if it isn't a voltage issue like you are stating. I have a buddy that used to be a marine mechanic. This sounds like. A job for him. First I am going to run to wires to the battery for my next trip. I don't think it is anything with the finder because it worked good for him. When you say puck what do you mean by that?

This spring I bought a used eagle fishfinder off a buddy. I think it is a 640. It has the gps with the external antenna. I have been having problems with the sonar loosing signal while trolling with it. The depth starts blinking then the screen gets blank. Then after a while it seems to fix itself for a bit. I have played around adjusting the tranducer but it doesn't seem to help. The gps keeps working fine. When I installed it I just used a wire under the dash that my old lowrance was hooked to. That seemed to work fine. Should I run a wire all the way directly to the battery? Also about a month ago battery died out on the lake. I charged it up and load tested it and it tested alright. Any help would be appreciated!!!!!

I am not a pro but we use bottom bouncers and worm harness a lot. I usually run about .9 with them for walleye. The key is to make sure you got them on bottom. You can see it in the rod. The 3 ouncers are good to about 25 to 30 ft of water.

Thanks Jiffyjerk. That is exactly what I was looking for. I could find the models but no dimesions. I am cutting it tomorrow night!!!!!!!! I think I will still be able to get down to walleye speeds!!!!

They make one up to 50 hp. That's the demesions I am looking for.

I am thinking about that. Trolled for four hours Saturday and burned 10 gal of gas. Seems like a lot doesn't it. Before I had the plate I was running two 5 gal pails. Worked pretty good, but one night on the way home the pails blew out somwheres.

I am running a davis trolling plate that is the large plate on my 50 horse. It seems like way to much. I was wondering if anybody has the dimesions of the smaller plate. I am thinking of trimming some off the big plate. the plate is great for walleye speeds. When I try to get up above two I have to run pretty hot on the motor, and am burning a ton of fuel. Any input would be much appreciated. Thanks

Ran it today on a local lake with some other trees that my buddy built. I didn't have any luck on them. Did pick up a few small lakers on a couple spoons, but was real slow fishing. I ran a about 1.7 on the gps, but think I could go slower yet. They seem to be spinning pretty fast at that speed. Any input?

I am going to try to run them with flatfish on Sunday. I will let you know how it works out.

Picked one up today to try for lakers. Has anybody used them and had any luck. I like them because they seem pretty light weight.

Thanks firechief came through for me. I also found some on Cabelas site and ordered them also. Should be set for a while now!!!!!! Thanks to all Ryan

What town you located in. I may be interested

I trIed looking there and nothing came up in the search. I found the.m on cabelas , but thought I would try on here first.

I am looking for shear pins for a hydro troll trolling plate. Any suggestions

That's what we call a cast and blast. Nice
