I was taught to do this years ago and still do this when hole hopping. Dunk the ducer, swing it in a circle. You will see “blips” show up when fish are around but not under the hole. If you do it enough and get used to it, it can be a great tool in showing which direction the fish are moving. Its a heck of alot quicker than me walking back to my livescope and scanning.

I have done that a few times but I worry about damaging the ducer wire by doing that frequently, have you run into issues doing that?

You’re 100% right, couldn’t remember where I heard/read it but it had to be the podcast.

Thanks for the answers guys, I decided to buy the Minn Kota plug and will give it a shot!

I would like to see a few things from the DNR.

Lower bag limits state wide and make more areas or periods of the fishing season strictly catch and release to help with fish populations.

Increased enforcement from CO’s.

If further funding is needed for these two things then increase the cost of fishing licenses. Compared to other hobbies that cost of access (minus gear) is extremely cheap considering a fishing license allows you to fish most of the year.
