G'day Mate. I currently run a 185M, but am looking at upgrading my setup and include a 3 in 1 tranny. How do you find having one tranny on the port and the other on the starboard side? Currently have the 185M on the starboard. Most of what I've read is suggests to put both on the starboard side (and different heights), but that'll get a little cramped if I have sufficient gaps between them and also the prop. Do you have much interference from the prop backwash on your port side? Cheers
@@ReelFunTimes33 hi mate, I do know that is is common practice to have your transducer on the opposite side to where your prop was would be however I have had no issues with having the 3in1 on this side on my hull. Can’t speak for other hulls or outboard configurations but this works well for me. It still reads at 30+knots
awesome work on the cod guys but the one thing I have to suggest is a better system for handling fish, may i suggest a good quality set of lip grips to grip the bottom jaw to assist in fish control and better quicker hook/s removal while the fish is in the net preferably in the water still but if need be in/on deck kayak and always keep it wet for the fish. then back into the water asap and do a quick check on the fish for signs of keenness to get back home, biting down and fatigue damage or something not usually in the behaviour of cod. please assess and if able get a quick picture using the baby cradle support lift also get a assist with bigger fish and release it with all attention now on it's release health and swimming behaviour as it swims away incase of the extreme rare case of a swimming fish belly uping trying to get deep which may involve a swim in after it and that sucks in deep winter before sunlight lol. i honestly hope that doesn't come across with a you did completely wrong way as we all love these fish and as a collective effort better handling techniques can only improve if we all add positive and stop the you did wrong and assist others in the better ways/ideas to help preserve this fish for whoever wants to try for the illusive 130+cm old girls. best of luck with your fishing whoever reads and hopefully take something new from this advice.
Thanks for your time in writing your comment mate. Great insight. And hopefully others learn from it also. You’re 100% correct we always have room for improvement. And as the population grows we want to be better so our kids kids get to see these fish also. 👍🏽
How bloody good was that! Dreamy conditions, swags on the Beach and any number of species! Easy to see why you’re missing it! Hangin to get up there and throw some lively Lures around! Top stuff mate, got this ol fella froffin! 🔥🙌🏽
Great video. I see that you do have doble transduce.. I see that you have a 1 kilowatt transducer for deep water and another for side vieuw down scan image. What model of lowrance FF do you have ?
Hi mate, I have the hds live 16”. I have the 3in1 transducer and the tm275L/HW which is a dual channel 1kw transducer. This is the one I would use in 200m of water on the L channel. This would read perfectly in 200m of water.
Great Video, thank you very much. One small comment which applies to most Aussie anglers, there is a huge opportunity for improvement on how we handle trophy fish. It helps recording fish by weight & not length, so they are not thrashing around on the measuring table. I watched this Pommy video, really opened my eyes. Hopefully this doesnt come across as too critical, its not meant to be. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-18cMSxpevew.html
Thanks for your comment mark and also your concern for the fish. There needs to be more of it. We are all in a learning world and all advice is and should be welcome. Thanks for the link
Yes will agree with some of what you say . To keep them in the net until you measure, I think is best but measurements of Murray cod is about the most accurate . Because depending on where your fishing & food supply that can have more body mass than normal.
Hi mate, for the depth of fishing I am doing it doesn’t seem to be to much of a drama. Upto 80m. However you can kind of tell in the arches wether you are right over the fish or if there off to the side.
@@latitudesixteen6813many thanks for this response. A good point on arch visuals. Do think the 275 is still the best Ducer in your application, as opposed to say the 265LH or 185M? Also, what aspect of fish arch do you look for to establish if the fish is underneath the boat? Cameron
I think that the 265LH is definitely a good option and I would be keen to see what it is like. I just hate to think that when running I would possibly miss ground (new fishing spots) due to the narrower cone. A lot of my bottom fishing spots come from finding ground while travelling at speed.
@@latitudesixteen6813 yes thanks. Good point. When you see multiple fish arches with the 275, what aspects of the arches would indicate that it is close to or directly underneath the boat?
I have found if the fish are off to the sides the tend to have such a solid showing on the screen like they are a bit more pixelated. And the archers aren’t full more of a half arch if that makes sense? This is what I have found anyhow.
Nice part of the World out Severn River way and all that Guy Fawkes NP and Track over to Grafton way with the Convict Tunnel and I think the oldest Timber Bridge still standing in NSW or Aus, one of the two hey. Very fortunate to have it as green as you did, I’m really surprised you didn’t see at least half dozen Red Belly Blacks, each time I’ve Bow Hunted out there, you’d near step on one at least twice a day, gave me the willies each n every time! 😂Was going through there on the Moto, nothing was flowing, grass was like dust and the wildlife was belly up, and the Fires were up Tenterfield way down through Guy Fawkes NP big Jet was bombing the red retardant on the fires. Chalk n Cheese to where you are now but!
Hahaha hey mate, sorry we have one ready to roll I’ll try get it uploading tonight. We are in western Oz and been in and out of service heaps of late. Cheers for the message haha it will be up soon! Plenty more coming as well!
Hi Mate. Just wondering what you thought of the big rims and low diameter tyres. Did you think it was an ok combo? Or would you go for something different
Hi mate, we haven’t found the 18” wheels to be to much drama apart from finding tyres at times. In saying that the tyres we are running a pretty big. 305/65r18 in this video. We can’t go any smaller in rim size as it won’t fit over the brakes. I do think that more rubber adds for a smother ride and allows for a bigger footprint on the sand if letting tyres down. Hope this helps
Thank you mate, really appreciate it! Hopefully RU-vid starts to think so to soon so then it gets pushed out for more people to see. Videos don’t seem to get many views at the moment. But that’s ok. Glad you enjoy!!! Thanks again for the support 😊👍🏽
I think I seen the gorge as well we wanted to go there but it was rain so we decided to head west to try and escape that haha. We will definitely be keen to check it out next time tho! 👍🏽👍🏽
No transmission tune. I often think about it but we have a lockup kit that has dual options. One above 80ks and one for when you are doing a lot of slow driving. I always just drive it in manual
You’ve more than likely way passed it by now but, ahh well. There’s a place called “The Gorge” between Kyogle and Grafton which is a farm on the Clarence river, bass fishing. Beautiful spot. Ahh well, never mind
I’m not sure mate but we might have stayed there. Or near there! I’ll have to back track and see where it is. We are definitely passed there now. We are in WA lol
