      You must be running it on a bass boat... for those who aren't running it through 15 feet of hull, I expected more than the cheap plastic solution they provided on a $1K Unit.

    Great install Darren. I did purchase the naqqua from a prev vids, and i love that battery. Four years ago i purchased my striker 4. It's good for learning, and depth. Especially for my pdl drive, and my Bixpy. I do love that upgrade, because it's live scope compatible. I Can't wait to see future vids on you using it. 💯 🎣 🛶

    The cell block isn’t that big. It will hold a 12v 10ah battery and the whole purpose of it is to not drill holes in your yak if you don’t want. It also makes it so you can take your rig off and put it on another one without install and deconstruction.

    Great video! One question. You mounted the transducer flush with the boat. Does the transducer not need to be mounted lower than the hull for the side scan to work properly? It wont interfere with side scan ability mounted like that?

      Awesome, good to hear! I was originally going to use a switchblade for my transducer because I car top my kayak so didn't want to be banging the transducer around if it was mounted below the hull but now I will try to flush mount it. Thanks!@@wendellfishing

    That clip on threaded part on the unit end of the transducer cable isnt dumb!!! Its brilliant! You only think its dumb because you have not tried to run all that cable thru the hull of a bass boat! But not putting the normal threaded nut on the end it makes it much easier to fish your cable thru the hull of a full blown bass rig.

    • @wendellfishing
      @wendellfishing  11 місяців тому

      Couple reasons I still think it's dumb. You would only be saving 1/8th inch. 2: For someone who may be putting it on something other than a bass boat, it's a really cheap design on a $1K unit. 3: Not intuitive for install. A waterproof click connect makes more sense to me than the cheap plastic connector they made.

    Question for you. I heard for sidescan to work properly in a yak the transducer has to hang out a little from the hull. I have a Native Slayer and it’s a heavy beast and always hitting gravel so I went with a side mounted transducer mount. I would prefer to mount it like how you did, and now that you have had time you experiment have you made any adjustments to the mount or good to go? Also I just bought the Garmin 93SV and also thought the sonar plug was ridiculous and glad I am not the only one to think so.

  • @rbljackson

    Can the transducer be mounted on the inside hull of the kayak along the bottom instead of having to run it to the bottom? I have a Ocean Kayak scrambler that I use for salt and fresh water fishing. Primarily, its used for deploying shark baits and kayaking them out thru the surf and dropping them a few hundred yards offshore. Because Im running thru surf, I want something that can stay on the inside of the yak and be secured when not being used for the fish finder.

    • @wendellfishing

    I just bought the 7-in version myself, I'm curious if you have any ideas how to do a center mount on a autopilot 136?. I feel like I would much rather have the screen directly in front of me as opposed to my left or right side. I wondered if you had any kind of ideas? I thought about mounting some sort of pole in front of me using the gear tracks and maybe attaching with robo grips? Any help would be appreciated

    Question. With mounting the transducer under the kayak, is there enough clearance from the hull for side imaging to work properly? I have a slayer max 10 and am thinking of getting the same electronics. Deciding between using the switchblade or going with the mounting area that's already there. Awesome video btw!

    I’m trying to have as clean a set up as possible. So I have a NuCanoe unlimited and I’m thinking about running the battery and transducer (using that puddy method) inside the rear internal storage. And then run the wires up thru the yak and out the gear plate next to the seat. Anyone have any thoughts or advice

    • @wendellfishing
      @wendellfishing  10 місяців тому

      I have yet to use the putty method but I have read (like you) that it is supposed to work. Eveything else makes sense to me. The tranducer plug would be a pretty big hole.
