Thanks. I have to do an all new run . So I will go with 16ga. THX

I am getting ready to install a new depthfinder on the boat. I was just curious what size wire to use. Thx in advance.

Well you guys are always a wealth of knowldege on many subjects. Today I was just curious what kind of tips you guys have on winter fishing. I have read the majority of th articles, but i was curious what strategies you guys use. I live and fish in AZ. This will be my first winter fishing. Thanks in advance. *modified so this can remain in the general section and not need to be moved to the regional section-LBH

I always talk to people and they seem to always mention "cranking the cliffs" this time of year. I know by "cliffs" they mean the steep walls that surround portions of the lakes in az. The only confusion i have is that when using a crankbait it is best to bounce into structure or cover, but there is neither by most cliffs. Is this an exception to the rule or do i need to still find cliffs with structure to hit. Please let me know what you guys do because i would appreciate some help. Thx!!

i highly recommend mounting the transducer on the trolling motor, especially if that is your motor for the boat. it is very simple and all the material comes with the mount. in most cases there is a mount built specifically for the fishfinder you use. and they are cheap....15 bucks.

i was just wondering what were some of your favorite lures for finding bass at the lakes, something u can fish quick and hit a lot of water effectively.

was looking for another good read on largemouth bass. I just finished The In Fishermans Guide to Largemouth bass. any suggestions would be appreciated. thx

well i had some questions about topwater fishing. i read the articles and there some good info, but i am not sure how much it applied to summer fishing when fish go deeper. i was wondering how far a bass will go to get a topwater bait. are there any signs that topwater fishing would b productive, and any signs that it would not be productive. i am just trying to get some info so i dont spend an hour fishing topwater when it is not the right situation. any advice or answers would be great. thx

so i just purchased a hummingbird 525 depthfinder and i love it. i read the manual front to back and took it out a few times to find the settings i like. the only issue i have is i feel like i dont know how to utilize the depthfinder. i am not sure if there is a good tactic for covering a spot before i fish it and once i see the image on the depthfinder where should it be in comparison to my boat.(trolling motor mount) i have done a little tinkering on my own, but i was not sure if there was more tips or resources out there. i guess i will keep trolling and experimenting.

that will do it ! thx

sorry for the lack of info. but i just purchased it. i got the motor checked out and took it out today. i am new to larger boats, and i read some other peoples questions about planing. they were talking about jack plates and different sized props. i never went WOT with my boat , but i dont know how fast i have to go to plane out. it is not really a "problem" but i was trying to gather info now if it does become an issue. thx

what about jack plates and different size props?

i just took out my 87' chamion bass boat and it did not plane well or at all. i was simply wondering what is the way to fix that? do i have to be at a certain speed? i am just looking for some info to start my research. thx

That seems pretty cheap. get maintenance records, get it checked out by an outboard tech before u buy. and boats that have sat awhile will need some serious maintenance to the motor before u ride(in most cases). do u homework and get what u want. oh yeah and then post some pics.

i was wondering which set-up would give e longer battery run time. a link would help or f any of u guys know for sure. thx
