Can’t wait for the Livescope install video, my brother and I have been scratching our heads on how to install the transducer & wire on our Terrova (without spending another couple hundred $).
Mark on your tarova do you ever have any problems when you put it in spot lock the boat will stay in the same place but do 180 degree turn when this happens I am heading south it will turn back North enjoyed the video thanks
That's because of 2 things, 1. You dont have your boat scale set properly, and or 2. And the most likely reason, your not stopping 1st before you hit spotlock, and your not facing into the wind or current 1st as well.
@@MarkBlackstock how many hours are you getting out of single day of fishing? Not continuous but spot lock on certain hotspots, maybe just light jogging to a new close spot within 200 yards, then running spot lock after you get there.
Hi Mark, I have the Terrova and i purchased a Helix 7 to pair it to. How much was the pan optics addition or do i already have it with the transducer that cam with the helix?
Is that terrova the 12v 55lb ?? If so how does it perform? I have a 175 txw wanting to upgrade the edge minn kota 45lb to the 12v terrova 55lb for spotlock on brushpiles for crappie any input is appreciated Thanks
Yes it is a 12v 55lb 45” it is a great choice. My only thing is if you want livescope/Panoptix it’s a pain to adapt mounting options of transducers to it. If had to do it all over I would spent more and got an ultrex due it being more like the edge in that it deploys the same.
Hey John, I have a 175txw that came with the 45 pound edge which I didn't like so I upgraded to the terrova 55 pound thrust. I love the terrova but do yourself a favor and get the 80npound unit. You can't get enough power out of the 55. In spotlock on windy days the battery dies in no time, same with heavy current. I just sold my 55 and got a 80. Wish I would have just done it from the beginning but people said it had enough power, it doesn't
So I’ve got an aluminum 16ft bass boat, with livescope. Wind destroys me.. blows me around like a leaf. Do you think a 55lb terrova will hold me in spot better for crappie?
I took my Classic XL to a Tracker dealer and had them mount my Terrova so if there is a problem they will have to do the repairs. The service manager told me that he was familiar with the cracking problem and that mine shouldn’t have a problem. We will see……
