2 Use Electronic Topo Maps & Lowrance StructureScan To Locate High Percentage Areas In our sonar class we spend a quite of bit of time educating our fellow fishermen on how to get the most out of their electronic topographical map. Electronic maps are updated periodically and in a lot of cases are more current than the older paper maps. So if your map hasn t been updated in a while go to the Navionics website and do so. Not everyone can spend 300 days a year on the water and time fishing is limited to the weekends and an occasional day off. It s important to be able to make the most of your time on the water. In our class you ll learn to take an area the lake and condense it to a manageable form, thus eliminating unproductive water and find areas that have the highest potential to hold game fish. Having the most updated Navionics map card is essential to do this. Fish frequent areas like submerged roadbeds, foundations, creek channels and drainage ditches. An updated Topo Map will define these areas. The map portion of the above screen shot shows a large ditch next to a high spot in the bay. Note the shallowest water (14 ) resting next to the deepest water in the Bay (18 ) which in effect creates a underwater Hump and Ledge. The ditch was formed, prior to the lake being impounded, by years of erosion from high water over flowing from the creek. Note the shell bed on the flat part of the hump and some very well placed brush piles and stake beds along the drop to form what I

3 would consider a prime location. We marked this spot for future reference and returned the next day to catch several nice crappie and bass. No way would we have ever found this location without the help of our electronic topo map and Lowrance StructureScan. Finding high percentage areas can open a new world of fishing for you! For more information on our on the Water sonar class rk@precisionsonar.com Remember The first step in our On the Water Sonar Class is to perform an inspection of your system to make sure the installation has been done to factory specs and all components are installed in the proper location. We ll meet at our Installation and Repair facility at HITEC Outdoors and if adjustments are needed we can have them made prior to beginning your class. Doing so assures you that your system will perform at a high level and you ll get the most out of your time on the water. Our service is not a seminar, watching a video on youtube, or looking at a depth finder in a classroom. It s hands on, in your boat using your electronics class that will take your understanding and know-how to another level! IF YOU RE CONFUSED, FRUSTRATED, AND NEED ANSWERS then Precision Sonar s On the Water Sonar Class is for YOU! Here s just some of what Precision Sonar can do for YOU! Make sure your HDS unit(s) has the correct settings for the type of fishing you do. Program the individual screens and install the overlay data

4 on the screen that you want. Example: Depth, Water Temp, Time, etc. Arrange the screens so they display what you want them to show and make going from page to page orderly and nonconfusing. Eliminate unwanted, non-practical on screen data that clutters your screen and gets in the way of using your unit to its maximum potential. Learn the art of waypoint management. No more cluttered maps with useless or unproductive waypoints. You ll learn how to identify which locations are waypoint worthy and how to go back to those locations without ever assigning a waypoint. You ll learn to only assign a waypoint once you are satisfied the location is worth saving. Demo the unit for you to help you be familiar with the screens and commands, so you ll have a good understanding of how to use the unit and take advantage of its fish finding capabilities. Provide you with back up material to keep you on track once the class is over. As a bonus you ll learn to read an electronic topo map and learn how to condense and area to a manageable level and identify those sweet spots that hold fish. Here s what some folks are saying about our On the Water sonar class and Precision Sonar products. I absolutely love my Precision Sonar mounting systems! Jason Tew -

5 Oklahoma From Ronnie who came from Tennessee to participated in our On the Water sonar class: I heard about your class from a couple of guys in our bass club that took the class. I told my wife about it and at a surprise birthday party I receive a gift certificate to attend your class. To be honest I really didn t think I needed the class but after attending it I must admit it was one of the most informative things I ve ever done to help my fishing. I d highly recommend it to anyone wanting to get more out of their electronics and improve their fishing.
