Three Rock Indicators indicates a large amount
of bottom structure in a confined area. This
bottom may consist of a large rock(s), stump(s),
tree(s), or a ledge(s). Read the following tip to
protect this spot.
CARE OF YOUR FISH FINDER
1. Clean the sonar sensor and cable with fresh water and dry off before storing.
Do not submerge and/or spray the fish finder screen/housing with water or
use chemicals to clean. If necessary, wipe with a damp cloth.
2. Remove the batteries from the fish finder to prevent battery leakage and
corrosion.
3. Store the fish finder in the storage bag in a cool, dry place. Never leave it in
temperatures over 120° Fahrenheit (49° Celsius)as the extreme
temperatures can damage the electronic components.

NFORMATION
:
Experienced fisherman will tell you that many fish choose to hide
along the bottom and ambush their prey as it swims by. Logs,
tree stumps, rocks, ledges, etc. all provide excellent ambush
locations. Uncovering these hiding places will prove invaluable
to your fishing trips. Remember to keep an eye on the depth of your bait
while fishing bottom structure as you do not want to snag it on the structure.

NFORMATION
:
If you’re targeting fish that prefer weed or structure try this: If
you’re fishing from a boat establish accurate readings by using
the techniques in this manual. Next, slowly move the boat around
the fishing area while paying close attention to the bottom
structure and WeedID™. Do not begin fishing until you discover the optimal
spot for fishing (using your knowledge about the desired prey’s feeding
habitat and the fish finder readings). This may take a considerable amount
of time, but if you find a secret spot it will be well worth it. This can also be
done from shore by walking along the bank and tossing and retrieving the
sensor out into the water in 5 foot intervals. IMPORTANT: When you find
that secret spot, keep it to yourself. There is nothing that ruins a secret spot
quicker than word of mouth.
