Helix First Use Report

I enjoyed the company and just swapping fish stories.  Your new motor ran well and putting my big body up front made it get up on plane really easy.  I was amazed at how shallow Cutler really is.  Finding good places to fish would be tough.  One thing that would probably help with the glare is to angle the unit into a more upright position.  That way you won't get the sky reflecting off the unit into your eyes.

Thanks Jeff for taking some time, bringing the boat, and getting out with me.  I really enjoyed it.
You’re most welcome and the tip on the screen I figured out tonight and it really helped. Only problem tonight was all the rain. Hey I really like that side imaging it shows so much stuff that I had no clue was around. Those Megas really are nice machines I like it more each trip. Played with the mapping feature tonight and it works well but not a lot of changes in depth where I was running around. I can’t believe how much they have improved the clarity in a couple generations of finders. I hardly ever used it on my old one, but I’ll be using it a lot on this one. Seen a fish tonight that had to be BLK’s 36”er it was way bigger than the rest of the fish I was seeing. Would love to have seen it. Might of been a carp, but who knows. Anyway sorry I didn’t know you were there tonight could have got you soaked. Thanks for the tips.  Later Jeff
When things get stressful think I'll go fish'en and worry about it tomorrow!
