Waiting for some warm weather so I can mount them in the boat.

Purchased 2 new Humminbird finders. Helix 7 G2N and a Helix 12 G2N.  Waiting on a new trolling motor. I want the new Ultrex 80 24volt but can't see the money they want for it now.  Will keep checking on prices hopefully I can get one by spring. If anyone should happen to see any deals keep me in mind. Got my new trolling motor last week. Not all I need is warmer weather so I can get these things installed in the boat. Oh, and watching a lot of youtube to better familiarize myself with the 2 finders at least.

later in the year you can also find the thermocline.but playing with the sensitivity.

Comment by jim cosgrove on January 19, 2017 at 7:36pm

i only use the fish finder for temp and depth.i have fished lakes where the temp varies 8 degrees or more in different parts of the lake.especially important early in the year.

Like Duck says they only measure the temp where the transducer is located.
I carry a handheld remote probe thermometer to sample the surface temp.

Why so you ask?

John if you did that the water on the upper depth may big a big difference from the lower depths where the fish are usually caught.

Who has temp gauges built into their electronics ? I dont have temp gauges in my Hummingbird Ice 35 Flasher or my open water Eagle Fish ID

Vinegar is one of the best cleaners going - for decades.
A mild solution is damn near a cure-all!
