Buck 120 32 Report post Posted January 8, 2008 "Yes, Just make sure it has a zoomable fastrak or RTS. Roger" What do those options do? I have a Hummingbird 525. Would this work? Quote Not just a 3 month season but a 12 month obsession!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Some Old Guy 968 Report post Posted January 8, 2008 Yours has the RTS (Real Time) That's the bar on the right hand side of the finder. It's a raw signal. Yes the 525 should work. The most difficult thing to do is trying to make sure that a transom mount transducer is level so it picks up your bait while jigging in the hole. The best thing to do is to drill another hole about a foot to a foot and a half away from the hole you are fishing in. This way once it's level you don't have to worry about moving it when you catch a fish. Also the way the angle works it's easier to pick your lure up on the display. Find the sensitivity and zoom on your humminbird and play with those until you pick up your lure. Roger Quote R.T.R. Respect the resource! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CPR Report post Posted January 8, 2008 the best time I ever had was jigging in an ice shack nice n toasty warm watching the leafs loose while working on a box of beer, the best of all three worlds! I'm not a drinker, but I've got to agree with you about the warm and Leaf's loosing sentiments... especially the Leafs loosing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest CPR Report post Posted January 8, 2008 the leafs ALWAYS loose! Gotta love the Avalanche!! (proud to have been a fan since they were the Nordiques) The only good thing about the Leafs is that Sundin use to be a Nordique. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Big Moose Report post Posted January 9, 2008 I refuse to watch another Leafs game until they get rid of Ferguson and the swede. I always have been and will be a Leafs fan but I've had enough of their leadership.Besides the wife won't let me watch the Leafs in our home because she says too much stuff gets broken in the third period...This being said I still can't see how anyone could pull for the Habs I mean C'mon their emblem is a toilet seat for cryin out loud,You can't get a bigger hint than that..HAAAAA Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheech 2 Report post Posted January 9, 2008 I hear you Moose. I can't sit through a complete leafs game either. And I agree with the Ferguson idea. But I think the ownership is more to blame than him, primarily the teachers union. They are only out to get a better return on thier investment regardless of the teams on-ice performance.Sort of like Ballard. The money just comes in even when the team sucks, so why spend.

Cheech 2 Report post Posted January 11, 2008 It's not even halfway in the second and the Kings are hammering the Leafs 5-0,so I figure it's time for this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
