A good percentage of ice anglers, I suspect, never fully realize the potential of their sonar units -especially flashers – because they turn them on and then fail to adjust them properly.
Fine tuning is absolutely essential if you want to know the size of the fish you are seeing on the screen. Honest truth, I’ve had folks out on the ice with me and they have spent an interminable amount of time trying to catch the “big fish” they were convinced they could see, because the signal it was returning was so big, bright, bold and red. But when they finally landed it, the fish was tiny.
So, how do you fine tune your sonar unit so that it will tell you everything you need to know about the size of the fish you can see on the screen? Well, click on the following video, look over my shoulder and I’ll show you how to do it.
Great tip!!! Gonna try it if we get some ice.
