The CT’s can be found for much less if you do some digging.

Humminbird Helix Help
Derrr I meant distance not frequency. You can choose your frequency as well though which could help.

Humminbird Helix Help
I think you should read the manual and check your settings. That looks like the frequency needs to be adjusted.

I was at that point with plastics and I ended up finding some clear plastic containers with the double locking top at Costco. They are about the size of a shoe box and come in maybe a 5 pack. I have about 4 of them filled by technique and just dip back in there when running low on the boat. This lets me buy in bulk and still keep everything organized.

Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
Just leave a treasure map to the purchases in case things go south...you will always be remembered through Mega SI as far as I am concerned. I'm actually looking at the same setup 10/9 and 7 on bow- my marina where I keep the boat during the winter usually gives me pretty good discounts, I need to make that phone call soon.

TW has this deal running now as well which means you can probably stack some discounts on it. Looks like it ends in Aug

Wouldn’t it be smarter to use them for their Black Friday sale at 20% off? Memorial Day is 11.5 months after Father’s Day...

Garmin 93sv, Lowrance 9 TI total scan
The one he is talking about does not have mega. It’s going EOL so anyone left with it is in the $800-$900 range for the most part.

I have the 733 and the 734. I started with the 733 and it’s not ideal for 1/2oz jigs in my opinion hence me picking up the 734 too. I’m considering the zx with the Curado k as well for top water on my end- is that the setup you are going with?

They actually use crawlers to match price. Demand, profit etc are not factored in. They will match pricing at below their cost and then go to the manufacturer and tell them to make them whole.

Good deal? $899.00 Humminbird® Helix™ 10 SI Sonar/GPS Combo
Care to share with another by chance? I was debating between this and the mega but $1700 seems like a lot. That mega SI is pretty incredible though...

Stealth charging systems
I’m guessing it’s not a pure sine wave- being rated for electronics is still ok and any generator or battery back up can work with electronics with out having pure sine output. I don’t think this is a huge issue personally.

Cost of lures?
I don’t think anyone is forcing you to buy expensive baits or gear. You are more than welcome to turn up rocks for worms or you can buy a $30 lure. Do what you are comfortable with given your own means. This goes for all ages, employed or not. The important part with fishing is to enjoy what you are doing, no matter how you choose to do it.

Merc motor won’t give me top speed
I just had the compression tests done a few weeks ago and they were all 120-125. I just bought the boat (at that time) and everything was checked out. How would I check this? Hmm good to know, I’ll check the plugs tomorrow for sure.
