  1. I see no reason this won't work https://ads.midwayusa.com/product/1024013495?pid=833747&utm_medium=shopping&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=Fishing+-+Marine+Electronics&utm_content=833747&gclid=CjwKCAiA4veMBhAMEiwAU4XRr49XAd0KYgfBJqS0OwfL9vvLkbTjgFTDTFw01Q2jKOmREph3DjPBLhoC1FQQAvD_BwE It's almost a $400 transducer. A lot of guys have upgraded the transducer after already owning the unit, and have said that it is better, but not $400 better.
  2. It surprises me that you don't hear much about iRod, other than their swimbait rods. I absolutely love my genesis rods, and the lineup offers a rod for practically every technique and every situation imaginable.
  3. Ti2 cannot share DI/SI. Only 2D
  4. The more expensive one comes with the newer GT56 transducer, as opposed to the GT54 that comes with the one on sale
  5. NMEA 2000 connection between the units.
  6. Phenix offers a few blanks in their ultra swimbait and classic lineups that'll handle the Deps, that I've heard great things about. They top out at 8', so idk how bad you need that extra length.
  7. True, but I wouldn't really worry when you're talking about a $15 battery. You'll still get a couple years of use out of it, unless you're fishing 5 days a week. And if you're still worried about it, I know of a 6ah lifepo4 for $30. I have 2 running in parallel to give me 12ah.
  8. GoPro's weigh like 4oz. My size B holds up most 7" and under graphs with ease. So yeah, it'll be fine
  9. Can't help you, man I shield my eyes when I walk past the Lew's stuff. Not a fan
  10. "Able to pull double-duty in freshwater and saltwater, the Daiwa Lexa 300 HD Casting Reel features an all grease system of Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings (CRBB)" Directly from Daiwa's description
  11. I get it. I guess I'd still have to say stick with Dobyn's, and grab the Fury. I have a couple of them, and they are a great budget rod, they just never had that "wow" factor for me. On the other hand, I've hated every Lew's rod I've ever had in my hands.
  12. Most of the installations I've seen use a ram claw mount.
  13. Personally, I'd use the sale as an excuse to upgrade up a little to a Kaden. With the discount it only adds like $20 to the fury's msrp.
  14. What they do is write each weight on a little piece of paper. They stick each piece of paper on a dartboard and throw 2 darts. Whatever they hit, they sticker on the rod.
  15. Which generation HDS?
  16. I learned how to grind out those really slow days better. I took a job that puts me on shift every other weekend, and it obviously cut down on my time on the water. I didn't get to pick my days to get out as I used to, I had to take whatever time was available for me. I used to get frustrated and spin out in this situation. I really learned to slow down, start focusing on whatever knowledge I've learned about those particular conditions, and apply that. I'm still not catching huge bags on those days, but I'm finding more fish.
  17. I'll save everyone some time. It's a USCG regulation, so all 50 states require registration. Page 5: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.uscgboating.org/images/420.PDF&ved=2ahUKEwjn9d_g1Kj0AhU1mmoFHf-HABgQFnoECC0QAQ&usg=AOvVa
  18. The Smithsonian probably has one on display. Decent, modern graphs can be had for $100 nowadays. Seems kind of pointless to spend any more money on that fossil.
  19. You might need a Navarre adapter plate for certain transducers, but they definitely all fit. In my opinion, I'd skip the Hook. The tripleshot transducer is supremely disappointing, and the Ti2 7" only $100 more, and twice the quality.
  20. Yeah, but this is typical from a boat, as well.
  21. Not me. I've got a whole crate, so I fill 'er up. I think I have 8-10 3600's in it, plus a 3700 edge terminal box. Then I have a 6th Sense soft plastic bag filled to the point it won't zipper shut. In all reality, it's not that much tackle. But I'm prepared for most conditions or situations I run into on the water.
  22. A 7'5 rod is going to get caught on the same trees a 7' rod is going to, 99% of the time.
  23. I really don't understand the perception that longer rods are problematic on kayaks. If anything, longer rods are more advantageous on a kayak
  24. My curados and slx mgl probably get used the most. Not really saying much, I guess, 95% of my reels are either a curado or slx.
  25. Like I mentioned earlier, you can only do this for 2D on that model
