[cool][#0000ff]Hey cat_man, both my rod rack and transducer mounts are quick on and quick off. Here are links to the two posts with pics I have put up in the past[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]By using the bungee cord, you can set up your transducer so that it rides up out of the water (and away from rocks) while launching or beaching. When you get into deeper water, you can rotate the shaft so that it points straight down.[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]About the fish you see on the sonar. There will be more showing up in deeper water. First, because schooling fish prefer deeper water. Second, because fish will usually scoot out away from you in shallower water and rarely show up within the "cone" of the transducer...unless you are just floating quietly, without moving your fins.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]One of the worst things about sonar is that it tells us there are fish there, even when they aren't hitting. That messes you up. You don't take it nearly so personally when you can imagine that you are not catching fish because they are not around.[/#0000ff]
