Heres the bait tank http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ight=bait+tank
And theres lots of types of fishfinder mounts but the best is a wet mount like this http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...shfinder+mount Theres other ways if you search it up.

If you have a Lowrance unit OEX has the scupper transducer which is what I'm having Andy @ SSB mount on my new HOBIE. The temp reading should be more accurate than the through the hull wet mount.

Welcome to BWE. Where do you fish?
Spend some time reading through this thread lots of useful info. http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwevb/s...ead.php?t=6394 Use the search feature or "we" will bust your balls.  Beware of anyone that has anything to do with lollipops. Save your security tokens.

use your 12v battery for your fish finder and a bucket bait tank rather than the 6v battery on the tank. where are you located? I'm in vista and I can give you some help if you want

go Amish. buy the french drain tubing 2.5 ft long section. Drill more holes. cap each end w/ green drain screens. Catch bait. Put bait in the tube. Toss the tube in the water. what else do you need?
No batteries to charge or space constraints. |
