Guys,We are working on putting together a sounding guide.Same sort of format as we have with the other guides put we want to show what Reef/fish/structure looks like.Just so as guys have a reference as to what they might be seeing.
We are after pics off sounders both color and mono.We are very aware that guys dont like to give details of where they where away but a approximite area and what setting roughly you are using would be great.
Since there are heaps of brands out there the more feed back we can get the better the info we can put out.
Cheers Rick

Great idea Rick,
Sorry I cant help with info or pic's, but I recon it's a cracking idea.
Alot of fishermen dont use a sounder to even 50% of it's potential. A book will hit more people than a seminar.
Good luck.
Dave.

Yes,
thanks for that.It was something we wanted to do a few years ago.
With cameras now days we reckon it just would be fanastic and not a alot of work for people to do.just point click and send.
Cheers Rick

Yes I printed out all that stuff,Just starting to play around with layouts etc.
But I like the idea of having local reefs and areas as its where we all fish
