Fish Finders aren't like they were back in the 80s and 90s. You'd turn them on and go fishing. They are mini computers now. If you are running your fish finder in AUTO mode then it is not working to it full potential. We're dialing ours in multiple times throughout the day. Different water columns will ping back differently. When you get good with the settings, which honestly aren't that hard if you play with them, you can really get some good data from what's below the boat. For example.....ever walk or swim through the water at the beach and your legs hit a cold pocket? Those are all over the place. If you tune your fish finder in good enough you can see those below your boat. That's how amazing these units are now.

 

By the way you cant break these by playing with settings. There is a restore default mode that fixes everything.

x2 also take the extra time to read your instruction manual, some times updates change menu's and how things are displayed, also I know Lowrance and probably other makes add a revision or update to the manual online(usually after a software update).

Trust me reading a 50+ page manual is not my idea of fun,but it saves you time on the water and makes it more enjoyable.

I just noticed a Lowrance update online for all you HDS gen 2 Touch

Interested, where are you located?

I tried the bag method just to awkward for my needs, I have a swim platform so I custom fabbed a bracket and now run a kicker all the time, plus its nice to have the 2nd motor, my main engine lost ignition last year, Boy was I glad I had a kicker. And my ignition was replaced  year ago. Go figure

Same here..???

I'm on the Canadian side,but still bought them on Amazon.com(I have a US address) by the way they work great on my boat.

Sit down,Shut up,Hold on,...I'm gonna try something..

yes no problem,I purchased a "Garelick Stationary Outboard Motor Bracket-Horizontal Platform Mount"

online very sturdy,just watch your kicker weight as per the bracket you buy as they have weight ratings.

Received mine today as well,they look awesome,thanks again

I agree,was very informative,learned a ton,wished I could re-watch this,should make a video,thanks to all
