Hey everyone! This may seem like a stupid question, but I recently bought a new Nitro with two Lowrance Elite TI 7s installed on it. I have looked through the systems, the manuals, and online, but for the life of me I cannot find DownScan on my system. Where in the world do I pull up DownScan?!? Thanks, Krawfish

Want to give a big thanks again to everyone’s suggestions. The water ended up clearing up a little and we had 77° weather and a little overcast with sun later in the day. Had about 4 inches of visibility and found success in flipping a Texas Rig. I was fortunate to break my PB in the tourney with an 8.23 largemouth!!

Thank you all for the great suggestions and the welcome!! Hopefully I will be able to pull out a few this weekend, and reply with what worked. It should be a tough one...they are saying it's supposed to rain that day too It will be a good test! Thanks, Krawfish

Thank you for the suggestions. I have read numerous articles, posts, etc. regarding cold, muddy water and have applied each tactic to no avail. However, I haven't been throwing spinnerbaits into the brush that is on the lake, so I'll be sure to give it a try. Thanks, Krawfish

I have located the fish, primarily in one cove. Most are holding between 7-17 feet. You can tell that there's crappie mixed in with the bass, but I've had no luck getting these fish to bite. Even tried a spoon and crappie jig in the big schools.

Hey everyone! I need some advice on some tough water conditions I've been facing lately. For the last two weeks, a local smaller lake has been turned extremely muddy (less than 3 inches of visibility) due to the rain sweeping the red clay into the lake. Not only this, but the water temps range from 54-56. I've had very little success catching bass in this lake while it is like this, and I have a tournament this weekend after 3 days of rain . I would love it if some of y'all more experienced anglers can suggest a few baits for me to try out here! I've used lipless crank baits, dark jigs, shad raps, you name it. I imagine dark baits and loud rattling baits are the way to go, but is there any specifics I should try?? Thanks so much, Krawfish
