    Hi I am from Texas and am an old guy that likes to fish.

    I have a buddy with that boat and he is running a 24p Fury. He and another guy with this boat have both run 25p Tempest Plus props before. Not sure on the jackplate height, but you might start out at around 3-1/4" below pad and see how it does. Good luck

    hummingbird 798ciHDSI combo

    Wayne you are the man! I guess for me the SI on the front has been a tool I should use more, but have not. I fish a lot of structure on open water lakes here in Texas, most of my time I am working off of waypoints found with the console unit. Hopefully I get more time on the water this...

    Hummingbird 1198c

    Brandon, Wayne is way ahead of me and has helped me numerous times. I am currently running a 998 on the console and a 997 on the front. I want an 1198, but it will have to wait and see. Tons of great info on the web on the Humminbird SI units, look for them on Youtube.

    hummingbird 798ciHDSI combo

    Okay that e-ped is cool. But did anyone else watch it and find it creepy that it was a guy's hands doing the demo? He's been watching too much Let's Make a Deal! And Wayne, where do you find this stuff?? As to the 798 size units, I initially had one in the console, overall I was pleased...

    Hey Rob thanks, I may consider doing that. BPS here in Katy, TX offered to trade, at a ridiculous number. I graciously told them thanks, but no thanks. Might be a bit of a haul, Houston to Ohio!!

    Hydrowave-Another Question

    I have had mine on every trip, over the winter and on cooler days I run it on intermittent passive. Still have shad and minnows all around the boat, they love me.

    Carolina Rig

    Jimmy I am fishing my c-rig on 40lb Power Pro, I put my weight and bead on, add a 30lb swivel and tie on some mono leader, no lost tungsten that way. I cannot remember the brand of swivel, but they make them in several strengths. So far so good.

    Nitro Z7 2013

    I have a Pro XS 175 on my Z7 and love it. Of course mine is a 2008, had it 4 years. And if anyone is looking I have it for sale on the swap and sell boards.

    2004 nx 898 dc

    Shackman, a fellow who goes by the name of Reeldoc mounted a seat base on his Triton and then added a pole to help him get up and down from the front deck. I think it was on Bass Boat Central. You might be able to find a small step stool that would work, but would need to fasten it down so...

    Z6 vs Ranger Aluminum

    I am in the Houston area, and from my limited experience, most of the lakes around north Texas can and will get rough, they do around here! I have a buddy with a Z6, he runs all over Conroe with it like there was no tomorrow. His boat has a 90 Merc.

    Z6 vs Ranger Aluminum

    I can tell you this, the fiberglass boat will ride better. Think about what lakes you will be fishing and if there are horsepower limitations. If they are small lakes, then it is a wash. Big open lakes, I will keep my glass boat! Aluminums are great boats, but look at the weight of the two...

    Humminbird 998SI

    ace, not sure you have any choices. I did a quick scan of Humminbird's website and did not see any options. I have one mounted on my trolling motor, it is a beast. I used a mount from Transducer Shield and Saver. WayneP may be able to help.

    Speaker placement

    Eric look at the Pyle Marine Amps on ebay, I think I bought the 200w one. They have a couple of them on there that look like they have the MP3 adapter with them. I think the speakers were Pyle also.

    Speaker placement

    Eric, I have dual consoles in my Z7 and installed a pair of cheap indoor/outdoor speakers under there using the existing bolts. I power them with a cheap amp, and use and ipod/iphone adapter all from ebay for $100. Sounds good and if something happens I am not out a huge sum of money.

    Hummingbird 798

    Chris, you might take a look at the Yahoo SI group for install pics. There are lot of them on there. Another thing to do is look at the manual on Humminbird's website for a 798, it shows mounting graphics, not the best detail, but might get you thinking about it. I told you Wayne was on his...
