Does the truck’s reverse gear not work?

I use a David Halloran Crystal Mistress and a Woodhaven slate. I’m not trying to hijack this old thread but I’m curious what everyone is using for locator calls? I was looking at a Phelps Harrison Hooter but wondering if anyone had experience with it or a nice crow or hawk call?

Definitely looks like chert/sedimentary layers that were laid down over each other. With that color I’d say the chert is flint maybe some jasper in there. It all started as a sedimentary rock and then a chemical replacement turned some of that limestone into what you are seeing now. That’s a very cool rock and as a fellow arrowhead hunter I’d definitely hang on to it!!

Yes sir anytime…let me know what Hummingbird says I am genuinely curious now that none of that worked. Good luck on the water this weekend…I hope you rip some lips and cross their eyeballs!!

LMAO!! Yes sir my dad always told me if you’re going to do a thing you make sure you do it right. When I get into something I tend to go all the way in and completely nerd out on it. Probably the reason all my hobbies revolve around fins, feathers, and fur…I don’t have time for anything else. My little brother was also way early on the FFS game and I never got in to it and the first time he out fished me I took it very personally and devoted myself to learn my electronics and have them completely dialed in as that was the only way I was going to beat him after he got that “underwater camera” he had installed on his bow.

I grew up on the MS gulf coast and always salt water fished. When I moved to NW Arkansas I had no desire to fish freshwater until a guy I worked with took me bass fishing and in my young mind I thought there isn’t a thing you can show me about fishing that I already don’t know…how wrong I was. I got hooked on smallmouth and the first time I won $10k in a big bass tournament at Table Rock Lake I was hooked for life…you can’t find peace and adrenaline like that in a bottle or a pill!! When it gets ahold of you it just does and I haven’t found anything that can break that addiction.

I have a Helix 9 on my bow and had the same issue when I first installed it. It’s more than likely in demo mode to get it out do the following:

1. Power the unit ON
2. Press the MENU button twice
3. Use the RIGHT cursor to scroll to the Setup tab
4. Scroll down to Demo Mode (or Simulator depending on software version).
5. Change it to OFF.
6. Exit the menu.

If that doesn’t work double check your transducer connection and battery connections and make sure it’s stable. They will default to demo mode if the transducer isn’t hooked up, have an inconsistent power source, or cannot detect a sonar signal. Hope this helps.

Saw one on I-45 right around the Teague exit a couple of weeks ago when I was headed back from Houston free grazing right on the side of the interstate definitely an Aoudad and a pretty big one.

Other than to check the box of satisfying the Rooney Rule there is no logical explanation for this.
