This is Why I Fish the Bay of Quinte!!!

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

I saw quite a few video's on you tube and there's all kind of difference opinions where to mount your tranducer, Was told if it's not low enough
you won't get any reading at high speed (15/25KM ) i even took my leveler on the water add some coins and did the same at home to make sure
it was level.I play with my sensivity and it has to be crank up to the max to even see a screen .I know the Ottawa River is not the ST_Lawrence
the water clarity is a lot dirtier. I was thinking of selling it and get a Mega Plus.What do you think......Wally
Wally, so you mark fish with the "regular" 2D CHIRP sonar setting, but just not with SI?

A few weeks ago we were catching lots of small saugers but nothing on 2D/DI/SI showing arch or white spots.

That is definitely strange. So basically just marking bottom?
