Great buck. I know the deer, my buddy has pictures of it. I hunt the property next to your buddy but have not seen that one.

Im pretty sure that you cant share a transducer between an elite and an HDS unit. They both have to be HDS units with ethernet or both Elite Ti to share by wifi

Nicest one so far

Have you tried adjusting the one you have? Usually when you lose depth at faster speeds it is an issue with placement and not a defective transducer.

Mine are about the same. It all depends on your soil PH and how much you fertilized the soil initially. They will take off when you hit them with Urea.

107 deeper diver is equivalent of size 1 dipsey with a ring.

 

124 deeper diver is equivalent of a mag dipsey

I used 50 lb big game on my rigger rods this weekend and was happy with the results. The fleas were minimal on my rigger rods and mostly collected on the knot where the leader connected which is to be expected. My wire rods on the other hand were worse and looked like the pics posted above.

I put a topshot of 50lb big game on my rigger rods this weekend and was happy with the results. Very minimal fleas on the line.

Fished from 9 to 1pm today went 9 for 12. Dipseys 220 to 250 out, riggers 60 to 75 ft down. Bigger fish came on minion meat rigs. 200 to 250 ft deep was best.

Just launched, how deep are the marks?

There are my settings

I can take a look when I get home and let you know my settings although I dont have the totalscan transducer. I have a gen 2 with the. 83/200 transducer.

I have 12 different leadcore setups, all with tuffline micro lead that I use for walleye. I originally tried it because of the claimed deeper depth and mainly because I can fit 10 colors on a 30 size reel. I tested it out on a flat lake and found that I was getting 5 ft per color at 2mph, not the advertised depth of 6.5+. I have regularly hit bottom in 50ft with 10 colors out. Like everyone else stated it is very speed dependent, slow down and it goes deeper.

 

Needless to say, I am very happy with the tufline micro and have no need to try anything else.

Thanks, 30 or 40 lb mono?

Sent from my LM-G820 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Its 5ft per color at 2 mph, at 2.5 mph its more like 3 or 3.5 ft per color. You may gain a little bit of depth with more line out but with 30 lb mono it wont be much due to the drag of the thicker mono. If your backing was braid you might gain a little more.

I am headed up to Olcott on Friday for a few days and was wondering how the fleas are. I would rather splice in heavier mono for my rigger rods before I leave if need be. Thanks

Lost my trailer plate a couple months ago, it took about a week to get a new one through the mail.

We were out there at the same time, i remember passing your boat a couple times. We had the same results, 1 fish. Disappointing after how good the bite was this past weekend.

I have a tandem axle trailmaster trailer under my fishmaster 196. The trailer is definitely not overloaded but two of the tires on one side of the trailer get more wear on the outside edges than the other side. Anyone have any idea why?

The website or app you are looking at has the arrows backwards.  Every else I have ever looked has the arrow pointed in the direction that the wind is blowing.   Take a look at the windfinder app, it has been really accurate for wind. I would disregard the temp and wave heights displayed though.

They dont need a license and they count as far as rods and limit go as long as you can justify that they can reel in their fish on their own.
