Thanks for your help I always appreciate having this site as a go to for stuff like this!

My hunch is the 50 will be a problem but let the data speak for itself:smile: give it a shot. As far as placement I have a transducer from my depth finder sharing a screw with the Fishhawk and it no problem. Turbulence from the main or kicker is usually the primary concern and you want a transducer away from chines or strakes on the hull and not so far outward toward the side on the hull that it isn't fully submerged all the time. The angle it is pointing should be checked and adjusted optimally and  the amount of protrusion from the bottom surface of the hull as well.

I have two options the one on the boat is 77 / 200 khz, the other option I have is a 50 / 200 khz if both have an issue I will have to run the sonar at 200 while using the Fish Hawk.  I was hoping the 50 might work but I will give it a try.  Thoughts on how far apart they should be just to avoid turbulence from eachother I never have had two on the same board?

I have a 17 Ft Lund and need to install the Fish Hawk transducer.  My only really option is on the same side as my sonar transducer.  Any thoughts on how far from the current one I should go?

Assuming 

Asst his was sold but figured I’d ask

Been in the trench with big rollers but could never stay just too much for my boat.  Good for you!  Let us know how the rest of the day goes.  Was there last week and like elsewhere not much going on, hope it is changing.

Windfinder in the app store, not always right but as close as you can get.

Left Tuesday as too rough to fish, was slow Fri to Tue. got 2 kings, one laker and a small brown that was it.  Have not heard anything since I left.

Launched out of Pine Grove fished from 120 - 200 got one King on meat rig and 11” white,  meat rig fired again but nobody home. Rest of the day slow as molasses. Try again tomorrow. 

Fished out of Pine Grove launch started in 120 for and worked out to 200 meat rig fired nobody home, got one nice king on meat rig and 11” white at 10:30 and nothing the rest of the day. Temp was still down 95-100 55 degrees to 49. Try again tomorrow. 

Low Baller great to meet you at the launch. Got temp in 120fow down 95-100 but didn’t fire a rod. Good luck tomorrow!

Thanks for the advice on the launch!

I'll be fishing Fair Haven for the first time Thursday and Friday before Labor day.  Any thoughts on best place to launch and where to start would be appreciated.  Also is there a place to clean fish or have them cleaned? Thanks this site has been a big help!

Coming up to fish for the first time this Friday through Tuesday, the feedback on this forum has been great.  I will keep checking and will post what I can although it may take a while for me to figure things out.

Thanks

Still for sale?

I am also going to be fishing this area for the first time later in August.  It looks like from the map that if you need to get to deeper water to find temp that it is a shorter ride out of Oswego to get there?  Or is it still better to start in Mexico and work your way out?

Again this site and the info you all provide is such a help. I’ll keep checking here and let you know how I do!
