I would like to buy a Thumper , but I know nothing about them. Has anyone had any experience with the Thumponator. It looks good . Can anyone recommend a good Thumper ? Thanks for your help

Built mine. However, I like doing that sort of thing.

I know there are many. Three years ago I bought Bobo's. No regrets, good product. I have used it 20 times and will not fish in Texas without it. I am from out of state and get to come four times a year, so I want the opportunity at fish under my boat and this usually gives that opportunity. Will be using it down there in a week!

Bobo's thumper here too! I've had mine for a little over a year and it really does bring the fish in!

Built mine and it worked so good I started building and selling them. If you want to learn about them I have about 100 videos discussing how to use them all year round…

I've tried to get results with one before. I've done better just using my fish finder. They don't seem to come to the sound, or stay around any longer using it. Tried different speeds, and nothing. Some people swear by them.

If you don’t have one, I recommend getting one! It has definitely helped me catch more fish…. There are plenty of thumpers on the market so find one you like and go for it!

Scubaarchery, Watched your video. Do the different speeds of the thump work differently for the type of fish?

I normally adjust the speed due to the water depth and temperature. In deeper water I try to create more vibrations in shallower or colder water I turn it down a bit. Your graph will tell you if the fish are sticking around or avoiding your boat. Here is a cool video Tim and I shot when I first tried a thumper. Watch what happens when we changed the speed!
