How to Identify and Resolve Common Issues ?
We offer a diverse range of insights on identifying and resolving common problems in sports. Our sources encompass academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays shared by seasoned athletes. :
Portable fish finders use sonar technology, like many other gadgets. The transducer emits sound waves. If there`s an object in their way, the waves will hit it and bounce back. When those waves reach the transducer, the software calculates how far away the object is.
To choose a fishfinder, consider the type of unit—whether it includes GPS and is part of a boatwide network, size of the fishfinder`s footprint, resolution of the display, how much transmitting power you need, and what frequencies will work best in the inland, coastal or deep-water environment where you fish.
On a typical sonar, the thicker the return on the bottom, the more dense the bottom is. Take a Lowrance HDS 10 for example. When you see a hard bottom like gravel, chunk rock or shell beds, that bottom will be thick and yellow.
It is not recommended to run a FishFinder and transducer on a boat that is not in the water as you will not get any readings from the transducer. A normal 500w or less transducer should not have any issues when running out of the water.
Medium-frequency bands of around 85 to 165 kHz provide a compromise for both shallow and deep waters. Fish finders with transducers that are installed properly can mark the bottom at relatively high speeds — up to 40 mph in some cases, though the slower the boat speed, the better the on-screen images.
GPS not only allows you to track your course and create mapping of favorite fishing spots, structure, and water hazards, it could also save your life. Most GPS units come with pre-installed maps. To obtain more detailed and updated GPS data, however, invest in a Lakemaster or Navionics SD card.
Numbers on a nautical chart are depth measurements.
Water depths are measured by soundings usually acquired by hydrographic surveys. The depths may be in either feet or fathoms (the chart will indicate which).
The difference between a fish finder and a Sonar
While Fish Finders can detect echoes under the ship, Sonars can detect schools of fish all around the ship, making it one of the most efficient way to search for fish.
Ultrasound frequency used by a fish finder generally ranges from 15 kHz to 200 kHz. However, the majority of the conventional fish finders oriented for recreational craft utilize 50 kHz and 200 kHz.
A method for echo-locating underground structures, such as piping, is presented. A sequence of acoustic impulses is launched into the surface of the ground in an area where the underground structures are believed to lie buried.
Global search is a very useful tool that can help you quickly find everything you need to know within Sonar. There are 2 ways to open up the global search bar, from within any screen in Sonar: By quickly pressing the SHIFT button on your keyboard twice (SHIFT + SHIFT)
Traditional 2D Sonar
Red is strong, yellow is weaker and green is the weakest. Think of it in terms of heat, the red hot signals are the strongest and as they weaken they “cool down”. In addition to the colour of the return the thickness of the band on the display is important.
The sound of the sonar probably won`t bother fish much at all.
Stronger reflections are shown in orange or red, and weaker ones are shown in green or blue on the screen. A fish school of high density or rocks on the seabed return stronger signals, so they will be shown in a reddish color, while a fish school of low density or small fish will be shown in a bluish color.
Smartphone fish finders connect to your device, either phone or tablet, via Bluetooth or WiFi, making your mobile device your monitor. This is accomplished by installing the app corresponding to your fishfinder on your device. Most are compatible with both Apple iOS and Android, giving everyone a chip in.
2D, Down Imaging, and Side Imaging are designed to work from a moving boat, they`re not made to work sitting still (or barely moving). It`s possible to adjust the fish finder speed and settings to have a general idea of what`s below the boat but you`re not going to get detailed images.
Numbers on a nautical chart are depth measurements.
Water depths are measured by soundings usually acquired by hydrographic surveys. The depths may be in either feet or fathoms (the chart will indicate which).
It`s also important to consider the amp-hour rating of a battery and how that compares to the power draw of your fish finder. We recommend the Battle Born 100ah or 50ah Kayak Kit for your fish finder battery.

More and more boaters are using the electronic device they purchase for a fish finder also as a depth finder. This is because most fish finders provide the depth as an integral function of their operation. However you can still purchase electronic devices (depth finders) dedicated to pinging for depth.

Cannot open Shakespeare Synergy Steele 2001s fishing reel
ANSWER : Alright man……i had the same problem. it just takes a little bit of elbow grease, bot it does twist open, it’s just harder than hell to get it to twist off. I took a towel and laid it over the reel, and lightly tapped on it with a hammer to loosen it up a bit.

Help! Just bought a Remington 30 06 for my grandson that has a Bushnell Sportview U4124 4-12power scope mounted on it. I would like to sight it in at 100 yards using a 180 grain shell but I don’t have the owners manual and I don’t understand an on line explanation that I found. This is the on line message: “You’ll see two horizontal crosshairs, put the top one on the animals back then zoom in until the bottom one is on his stomach. Look at the numbers on the zoom dial there should be three lines they are D – deer, E – elk and A – antelope. The numbers are the distance to the game, you then turn the external elevation knob or turret to the matching distance and shoot dead on. No need to hold over for bullet drop. The sad part will be if you didn’t get the other turrets that would have come with it as they are calibrated to different calibers and bullet weights”
I don’t understand how to set the elevation knob to 100yards when its lowest shown number is 150. If I need other turrets how or where can I get them? Thanks, a frustrated grandfather.

Ladyfish fishing pole by shakespeare
ANSWER : Try switching sides of the handle by holding the bell and reeling then screw it in on the other side of the real by just reeling in.
If that doesn’t work then take all the line out and reel in some new line the opposite way.
