Just making sure you put the sounder where the wash from your prop does not affect the readings when going at speed. It is the only place it can go really, I dont think going wider on the transom will matter as I can only go over another 3 or 4 inches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddyT Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 your transducer is on the wrong side of the engine-if you can switch sides you will get far better results. a normal rotating prop spinning clockwise throws an enormous amount of wash to the port side of the boat and NO transducer can blast through the aeration. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a suction cup mount I can try with the transducer on the starboard side to see if it makes a difference. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The box is blue, however I used to buy it from another fish shop and the box is white. Still....for that price and the hit rate on fish I've had, I'm certainly not going to spend up to $45 a kilo for leathery bait. i totally agree , i would never pay that much for bait or even for fish fillets from the shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
