[. . . ] But an echo is also returned from any object between the transducer and the bottom. As you move away from shore on a deep lake, the bottom signal will gradually move around the dial until it reaches zero. If the dial is calibrated to a depth of 100 feet, the water is 100 feet deep. Continue further, and the bottom signal will start around again.

'T'pically, the transducer should be located halfrway between the center of the transom and the outside edge of the hull. (See Figure 8. ) SIGNALS FROM STEEP, ROCKY LEDGES 6. Use a good quality two-part epoxy to bond the transducer silicone rubber sealer or any adhesive that does not get rock hard. Follow the instructions on the epoxy package and mix it thoroughly. Apply a small amount on the entire face of the transducer and pour 1/16" thick level into the area contained by the clay dam. Place the transducer into the epoxy by pushing and turning to force all of the air bubbles out from under the transducerface. The transducer face should be parallel with the boat hull, with a minimum amount of epoxy between hull and transducet Weight the transducer down until the epoxy cures. Route the transducer cable along gunwales and away from power cables. Loosely attach the brackets to the transducerwith the hardware provided. Locate the bracket where the flow of water is smoothest with minimum turbulence to the hull. Do not use lates time into disThe transducer should be mounted away from stakes, ribs, or other hull fittings that can cause turbulence. If the hull deadrise exceeds 4 degrees, a shoot-thru-hull mount on the centerline of the hull or an optional transducer should be used. 9 Your EAGLE trans- k \ DEAD RISE 100 5. Place the bracket against the transomin the selected area with the bottom of the trapsducer flush with the bottom of the hull. Obviously, the back of a big fish offers a larger surface to reflect the signal than the back of a small fish. Consequently, you get a wider and brighter signal on the dial and, even though you can't tell the exact size of the fish from the signal, it does give you a good clue so that you can instantly tell big ones from little ones.

The surface must be flat enough so that the entire transducer trial runs are recommended to find the best mounting loface is in contact with the hull prior to bonding.
