Humminbird 798 Settings/set-Up
Morning all! I just got my HB 798ci hd rigged into my 15' Decked Jon boat and I'm ready for this d**n ice to melt! I upgraded to the HDSI tranaducer and I'm wondering what settings would give me the best picture? My goal is to use this unit mostly in sidescan mode to learn about the small private lakes I fish on. What settings would give me the best picture? I also want to learn to "video game" fish with this unit, and the waters I fish are perfect for that. How to you set-up the unit for that? Thanks all!

Flw Sponsorship
The pros have to fish out of Rangers the last day, and those boats are wrapped by FLW sponsors. Look at Hackney when he won Pickwick. There are Team deals, or there used to be. A lot backed out: Chevy, Castrol, Keystone, more.

Move Bass Master Classic To Last Week In Feb. !
How about an October classic? It would open up the north, and you might get a few cold classics, but the fish would be feeding. Indontnthi kntheres a state that couldn't host a successful October classic.

Pa Boat Fishing Upper Chesapeake Flats. What Permits/license Reqd?
You could get a Potomac River Fisheries Commission license. That's what all the guys in my club get. Our club is based in Lansdale, Pa. It'll cost you about $50, but then you're good for ANY tidal water in the Potomac River Basin.

Move Bass Master Classic To Last Week In Feb. !
I live in Pennsylvania where we don't have open water from December until the end of March. I love the fact that these guys struggle with the cold during the classic, because they should. It's the big show! It should be the toughest one of all. Secondly, yes, it's cold, but they're still fishing. I don't have that luxury for a quarter of the year. I don't feel bad for them. Welcome to my world.

Swim Jig, Football Jig And Stand Up Jig
Swim Jigs: I like 1/4-3/8oz, although I fish a 1/4oz about 85% of the time. I like a bullet shaped head, 7-10 strand weedguard, regular wire hook (not heavy), hand tied skirt with the inner skirt trimmed out. All of these are very important for profile, action, and ease of hooksets. Swim jigs are NOT flipping jigs, but more like a spinnerbait. Colors in the northeast are usually bluegill patterns. My favorite is watermelon and electic purple. Single tail grubs are my favorite trailer. I will use a black and blue in dirty water, or even a bright white shad pattern. Matching grub trailers. Football head: 3/8oz for shallower water, up to 1oz for 20+ ft. Double tail grubs, or rage craws/Chigger craws. Regular wire hook for easy hooksets with a lot of line out. Always throw craw patterns, because that's what I'm trying to represent. Stand up heads: I don't use these very often. I like a flat sided head design for easy skipping. My favorite is a D&L Advantage. I like a HEAVY hook, like a tuna gaff. ITs a close-quarters combat bait. 3/8-1/2oz, heavier cover gets a heavier head. In cold water, I'll use a regular chunk for little action, and rage craws/double tail grubs, anything really as the water warms. Most toss craw patterns, sometimes a bluegill pattern if I see a lot of panfish around. Dirty water, I'll toss a color like D&L's Moon Cricket with matching trailer. Good luck!

What Should I Use This Rod For?
Those crankin sticks run a little stuff for my liking. It would be a good "single hook" reaction bait Rod: spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, swim jigs maybe.

Raymarine Wifish... Thoughts?
I think it's a great idea for the price. However, I would have a few concerns: -size of my iPhone screen: it's small, may not be good for seeing detail. iPad would be better. -battery life of my iPhone wouldn't last too long. Maybe if I had a backup battery or a Goal Zero solar charger, it's be different. What do you all think?

I agree with both of you. The Apex line is very good for each price point. I'm very happy with my purchases.
