Looks like a good starting point. Now taker her out and see how it does. Soon as I can get to my boat I'll take a pic to show you a little trick to reduce the spray off of it. Thanks. Hopefully i can get on the water a little sunday without being blown off.

Ok I said I owe a pic. Here’s my totalscan transducer. As mounted it reads great up to 50mph which is as fast as my boat goes. Problem was the spray off of it was really bad. The green plastic is a piece of cheap disposable cutting board. Cut it out and put it on there over 3 years ago and works great. No more spray. I probably could trim some off the back end but never got around to it. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/10/full-105650-70105-e1dad208_900d_4145_84ea_2def9619257c.jpeg)

Thats pretty neat. Need to go find a disposable cutting board now. How did you get it to stick to the transducer?

Just cut it out and mark where the holes are and cut or drill them out. Wasnt sure about that, thanks for the tips. Ill let you know how the new setup works, hopefully i can get out tomorrow some for some channel cat hunting.
