FISH FINDER 101: 2D SONAR - PART 2: NOISE, RANGE, SPLIT, PALETTES, SCROLL SPEED & PING | EPISODE 2

This is my second video on 2D Sonar and I’m going through some of the settings that will help you understand and fine tune your unit. Adjust the range to be able to see more in the water column to find the fish. We’ll look at Scroll Speed and Ping Speed and learn how to adjust them. I’ll discuss Noise Rejection, which filters the picture, and why if turned too high then you won’t be able to any fish.

FISH FINDER 101: 2D SONAR - PART 1: SENSITIVITY, ARCHES, A-SCOPE & FREQUENCY | EPISODE #1

I’ll introduce the different technologies and then go into depth on 2D Sonar. You’ll learn how to get out of auto mode and dive into manual mode. I’ll show you how to set up Sensitivity, Colorline, Arches, A-Scope & Frequency to get the most out of your fish finder and explain why each of these settings are important and what they do.

MY BOAT EXPLODED INTO FIRE! GEAR AND TACKLE MELTED...TOTAL LOSS

After getting gas, I was driving to the river and suddenly heard a loud boom. Looked in my rear view mirror and saw this orange colored cloud rising up from the boat. Took another look and flames were literally shooting up in the air!  Slammed on the brakes, jumped out of my truck and ran to the back of the boat and it was engulfed in flames. Started removing my rods and equipment out as fast as I could, throwing ’em to the ground. Some were melted and others broke in the frenzy. By this time, the intense heat was getting out of control! 

LOWRANCE GHOST 360 INSTALL | HOW TO SOFTWARE UPDATE & DISPLAY SETUP

I’m going to install the new Lowrance Trolling Motor Transducer with Active Imaging 3-in-1 nosecone. Then we’ll update the software with the new 360 feature. Afterwards, we’ll go through the setup to enable the Ghost 360.

INSTALL WINCH TO GET BOAT UP STEEP DRIVEWAY INTO GARAGE; CHEAP SOLUTION

Trailering your boat up a steep driveway can be a serious safety hazard. Once your trailer is unhitched, make one mistake and you could lose control of the trailer, putting your family and neighbors in mortal danger. In this video, I install a 1500 lbs. capacity 120 volt AC electric winch and a safety tow strap so a female friend can solo park her 18′ boat and trailer in a limited garage space which immediately drops off onto a steep driveway. In about ten minutes and less than $200, you can have peace of mind and park your boat in the correct position fast and easy and all on your own.

HOW TO INSTALL LOWRANCE GHOST TROLLING MOTOR IN AN HOUR WITH THESE TIPS & TRICKS​

After installing quite a few Lowrance Ghost Trolling Motors, I’d like to share tricks and tips which can’t be found in any manual. I connected the Ghost to both of my HDS-12 Live units using NMEA 2000 to share temperature sensors, digital gauges, fluid level sensors, Point-1 antenna and can even control the trolling motor from the back screen. In just an hour, you can install the Ghost and hook it up to your fish finders using my tips. I also go through the initial setup on HDS Live to make sure the units and motor are communicating with each other.
