Southernman, after you left, probably about the time you hit the main road my cell phone rings. It was work, had to go in for a few hours. Obviously nothing was happening here, so I didn't mind plus it's OT.
The spot had been very productive in the recent past. There were a lot of people on this particular day that were fooled.
Nighthawk, the finder you heard about is a Hummingbird Smartcast, RF-30. It was my Christmas present to myself. I would like too say it worked like a champ, but I can't. Granted, it didn't register any fish and we didn't catch any fish. It did show something just off shore but not sure if they were fish, may have been some kind of small fish in the weeds. The advertised range (75') is greatly hampered by heavy winds and waves. I couldn't maintain a signal past about 30' and with a tailwind the casts were going about 3 times as far. Further testing will be required.
Southernman, please don't tell hedgesd not to come down. Someone needs teach me how to fish. LOL
Take care,
