I like chopped liver! I use to have it all the time, Until I got old and can't have it anymore. I apologize. We are all one happy team here on this site.
I did talk to Lowrance a few times and they just said I had internal problems and didn't suggest any reset. They just want you to buy buy buy.
FYI = I did just try to do resets a few minutes ago and I couldn't get it to burp not even a twinkle. It's going back to Lowrance tomorrow. At least I'll be getting an upgrade. I bet they know that there are problems with the first gen units and won't admit it.
I just got home off the softball diamond. Milt - I made a mistake the other day we were 7-1 not 6-1. It got confusing with the rainouts. But now we are 8-1. Won in 9 innings today. I only had to throw in the bottom of the 9th and get three outs. It was a good game.

joe congrats on the game I think you played every position on the diamond this year if you get the gen2 fishfinder you will love it

[milt]

capt joe if you go with the gen2 get it with lake insight it has contour lines shows the docks in the harbors underwater pipes and everything else fishing hot spot card has and more good luck

Well my HDS5 is on it's way to San Diego, I understand that it should be there on Thursday, Milt I do have the Navionics Gold chip to use in the new unit when I get it. I bought it last year and used it in the HDS5.

Fished this morning with my son. Limited out at 11:30 AM. Caught, measured and weighed a 30" 10 pounder. Had a bad lamprey mark on the side. Handled it gently. Took a few pics and put it back in the lake. Fished Meyers Reef. Water was a bit off color. The fish were on top of the reef all morning. Bottom bouncers and worm harnesses.

I went out last night, and only got 2 small sheep head.
Would anyone be willing to take me out and give me a lesson or two?
I'm using bottom bouncers with harnesses, and dipsys with harnesses and spoons.
Have stick baits been producing?
I have yet to try these.
My harnesses never seem to stay on the bottom regardless of speed or weight.
My dipsys only go straight, neither of them pull to the side.
I'm also having a difficult time tuning the tension on the release of the dipsy.
Its either too hard and wont release, of too soft, and pops prematurely.
I would really like a lesson if someone has the time.
I'm slipped at the NFTA if anyone is there also?

Thanks

For me not many fish came off stick bates. The dipsy can be tricky. Set the tension screw to the pressure you want to release it. Sometimes it's molded to tight and you nay have to file or adjust it. The bottom of the dipsy has a adjustment for left or right.you want to make sure it's in the right side of the boat and tightened. Sometimes the current will pull it. It may appear that it's going behind but UT's off to the side.

I know about the L or R adjustment, I have those correct, just doesn't look like its operating correctly.
I might try to file the release gap a little, this might work.
I'm using a #0, is that too small?
I'm using it at the "3" setting for L & R, and according to the chart, for 35 FOW with the O-ring, 220' of line out is needed at 2.5 knots. (2.9mph)
I'm trolling slower than that, roughly about 0.8-2.0 mph, so I'm assuming 200'-210' of line out?
Should I get a #1?
I think #3 is way too big, am I correct?

Thanks
