Hey guys, my Lowrance won't turn on currently. I tried checking the fuse and connections and that's all good. Is there a way to tell the unit itself is bad or the power cord itself is bad. Thank you!

I just picked up a 1998 Johnson foot pedal tm. I am trying to find more info out about it... maybe even an owners manual. I have Googled model # and serial #, with no luck. Ik some of these are 12v/24v.. this one however has no switch for that as far as I can see. Here is the information I have. Any info would help, it works great I would just like to know a bit more! Model#: Bfx4TPP.98 S#: H 02948051

Thank You!! Would it be fair to say that to have confidence in fishing being there, start in the am on productive shoreline near the channel. Then as the morning bite dies off back off the shore and use my electronics to find a weedline or stumps or breaks likewise to the shore pattern I was running in the am???

This is a hard question I know without many details. But I guess what I am getting at is I want to become a more versatile angler, I would consider myself a very proficient power fisherman, I can run the bank with the best of them if need be. But when tournamant conditions make that hard I would like to be better at going deep. The lake I have most access to is only about 410 acres filled with tress and more wild rice to fish than you could shake a fist at. However, there are still massive stump fields and deep (15ft for this lake) stumps. Any advice on how to do this without wanting to pull my hair out at first? And can I fish those massive 6 feet deep stump fields the same as I would shoreline. I have a Lowrance Graphing unit on my boat so I am able to see a lot of structure with downscan. Any help would be much appreciated, again I know this is a very broad question but in a nutshell I am wondering what if at all is it possiable to offshore fish on this small shallow lake!

I myself have wondered this. When I first started following the Elite sereis when I was younger names like Clunn, Grigsby and Shultz were studs. However, all it takes is a look at the Elite AOY standings and scroll to the bottom and many of those guys are there. As a former Highschool angler myself I wonder if programs for youth, hs and college along with electronics have contributed to it. My second theory is a little more controversial. With all do respect to the guys mentioned before, I wonder if competitive drive is something. Competing in high school state, regional and national tournaments I have been exposed to solid competition and they have instilled in us a drive and path to make it as a professional someday if we so choose. As well, the education side has been incredible, each of the high school tourneys I was in was a learning experience in of itself being able to fish across the Midwest... as well as educational opportunities to learn more about the biology of fish and patterns along with how to be more efficient with electronics. I do not mean to sound like a punk kid by this, I am just bringing a point to the form that putting young anglers in tourneys like they now offer and giving us the tools to succeed we go into our future tournaments more prepared and confident.

So I normally keep my boat in the water all year on the dock about three hours from home at our cabin. But working more this year I want to keep it in the driveway and fish different fisheries more often to get more experience. But having only been used to put my boat in an out of the water twice a year the tires are terribly weather checked, and since my boat is at our cabin and do not want to take the trailer on the interstate, would it be the worst thing in the world to load my trailer onto our 18 foot flatbed trailer then once I get it home I will be able to drive the trailer because it's mostly city driving never more than 5 miles to a boat ramp. I know the boat trailer tires need changing but I would like my boat home to enjoy it, so I Googled it and I saw some people putting the trailer and boat on a flatbed, I at least want to do it so I can use my boat until I can buy some new tires. Any Thoughts?

I am wondering if I leave my boat in the water all summer is it bad for the transducer to be left in the water? I have my transducer on a removable mount so I technically could take it out each weekend. I am just wondering if this is bad for it or not? Thanks for the help

Just my personal statement but I have a 1975 Mercury 700 (70hp) and I think the ThunderBolt ignition is great and it can still get up and move for me. As long as you take care of them I believe they are great.

Was not even able to go and do not personally know anyone in the video but either way it looked like alot of fun.

I feel terriable when that happens to me, but you just have to tell yourself and know that you did not do it on purpose and did everthing in your power to save it.

NCAA athletes are not allowed to participate in any sort of gambling, which fantsy sports falls under. I got caught last year for fantsy fishing and our board said watch it cause if the NCAA finds out I would be suspended.

Congrats!!! WOW, $215" per bass is just crazy

Went about four hours away for a bass tourney and totally ran out of senkos in Practice.... no bait shop for miles.

I never do if I see someone working on a fish they found it and I do not want to scare it away. That being said sometimes in a tourney if my partner misses or I do we will tell eachother to take a crak at it. My dad and I do the same out fishing just for fun too.

Definitly fun! But stupid NCAA bans it hahaha so I guess it will be four years before I try it again haha
