    My plan is to fish NW sie of Kelley’s when we get there Sunday afternoon. I may just see you out there. What type and color is your boat? I’m a burgandy & wheat Skeeter. I hope to see your net in the water a bunch of times. Good Luck and safe travels.

    I’m leaving Sunday 5/18 3:00 am and will be there until Thursday 5/22. I’m staying at Little Ted’s. There are 5 guys with 2 boats coming from WI. We’ll fish north of Kelley’s or around the Bass Is, mostly west of Rattle Snake & Green or West Sister, obvioulsy report dependent. I’ve gone for 24 yrs in a row now and love it. I mostly troll crawler harnesses. If you want to give a shout on the radio we’ll probably be on 68. Bob Stick

    Finally figured it out. It was a bad GPS antenna. Can’t imagine how it could go bad over the winter. Humminbird sent a new one under warranty and everything works. I’m going to try the contour trolling today.

    I have everything hooked up and have had it on while trolling on Lake Michigan. It never found the GPS signal. I’ve been in contact with Humminbird tech support. They had me hook up my 788 and change it to external antenna. The 788 didn’t see the GPS either. Humminbird is sending a new antenna under warranty. I hope it works. I’m heading to Erie in a couple of weeks and will be fishing a few local tournaments.

    I upgraded the software to 6.61. I called Cory at Reeds Sporting and he was very helpful. He made a call to the field rep and got back to me within a half hour. He suggested I reload 6.49 and reset. Then redo the new 6.61 again. I first will be able to try it on Saturday.
