I enjoyed your pictures.
When you found those brush piles, using a down scan, did you just shut down and find the fish right under your boat or did you circle back and sneak in there.
Thanks for your post!:)

I threw out a marker buoy when the graph started marking and another one when I turned around and crossed it again...then I killed the main engine, put the trolling motor down and positioned the boat so the wind (as light as it was) would drift me back over the pile...after the boat was positioned with the back over the pile, I fished in a semicircle around the back of the boat...

Here's a bridge column surrounded by crappie. None were very big, but there were plenty of them.





Here's a brush pile that was in about 15 FOW. We anchored down and caught two small ones before I could even finish anchoring down.

COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !

Thanks for all the posts & info. I still need to learn to fine tune my unit, but have used it to find & catch crappie successfully

Nice shot of Bamboo with a Humminbird. hmmm Where's Keith.


Ok Bobby. Here keith is.... nannyboo

This is a pretty nice shot, but it is showing exactly what I am talking about. This Boo Structure is build with a lot of Boo sticking up, Thick in Boo, and it shows up well in these PICS.

My point about the Boo, is when it is this thick, you can only fish the edges of the structure. You have a real problem working a jig down inside the Boo Structure, and NO CHANCE of getting a fish out, if you get jig in. So, we have had to reduce the numbers of sticks of Boo in our buckets, to 5-6 pieces with limbs left on. That is still enough to attract crappie, but not enough Boo to keep you out of the pile when fish are holding tight to the structure, and will allow you to absolutely get the crappie out of the middle of the pile.

So this Boo in the PIC is several sticks of boo, throwing off a dence reflection for the SI to pick up, and a heavy shadow. As long as you are putting out Boo Structure like this, HB will not have a problem picking them up. But reduce the number of pieces of Boo to where you can fish it even when fish are inside the structure holding tight, and HB will not show this Boo Pile. My HDS will barely show it, and the HB will not. This is the point I try to make, but you guy keep running off with the HB Sucks idea of what I am saying. Look at the POST from Ahn on the Cedar Creek thread, and those are pic with his cell phone, shot off the screen. HDS-8 Gen 1


Actually we only use about 5 sticks per a pile, so I guess hummingbird is better then you say it is. Four on outside edges and one right in middle.
