Very generous, thank you!
I am trying to head back up Thurs but due to traffic and living in Riverton I try to be off the water by noon or so.

I have aqua view underwater camera if you think water clarity is good enough. I could loan it to you if you think that would help? PM me if interested.

Thanks Pete.
I will let you know.

Ooooh, did not think of that!
Give me a few minutes, I will run out to shop and pull it up.

Thanks for the tip Rocky! 
I was running two bb’er poles and controlling my boat and Mike, being much much smarter than me, was only running one.
You can see how leery of the dike I was by how I was away from dike and keeping bouncers out of rocks, by how inconsistent I was while heading north (north is at bottom of screen for this pic).
Then I dropped pole overboard and made two circles back around.
We caught one or two Eyes just trying to snag pole in those two circles, then only having one pole and being able to concentrate I was then able to track the dike much more consistently.
Moral of this story: Don’t be greedy and run two poles in shallow rocky areas.
