To expand on my first post.
While at the Mesquite Tackle show last winter I talked to the owner of Hydrowave.
He told me that if I bought one and didn't like it he would personally buy it back from me.
So I ordered the unit from Cabela's and a module from Hydrowave. Hydrowave claimed they shipped all orders within 48 hours.
After seven days my order still had not shipped. Lie #1.
Used the unit with the included sounds. No joy. Nothing. Nada.
Contacted the owner and explained the situation and asked if I could come down to his office and follow up on his deal.
He told me there's no way he could do that as it would cost him money. Lie #2. Told me to return it to Cabela's.

Very true as I was there, I know of no one who had a Hydrowave who either still has it or uses it and all wish they had not bought it. I have several friends with BOBO's and all like them especially if you remove the rubber buffer.

Lenahorse, I stopped putting the rubber pad under the mallet a while back. I kept hearing everyone was taking them off anyway. So why spend the time and expense if it wasn't needed? That was the first change. I hope that anyone who has experienced problems or have ideas will contact me. I want everyone to be satisfied with their purchase, and pass the word on to others. Thanks to all for the kind words!

As with anything you will get a million different answer. So what are you going to believe. I don't know. I own one. And would buy another one if the one i have stops working. I turn mine on every time i go out. I change the setting a few times during the day. I have noticed ghost minnow around the trolling motor more. I cant say for sure that it helps me catch more fish as i cant see what the fish are doing. I don't know if they come to the sound and see my bait and i catch them or did i just run my bait by one.. If you listen to some old cat fisherman they will tell you beating on the bottom of the boat will attack fish. Do you believe that. To each his own. I have one and believe in it so now you know how one more person feels.
