    Depends on what your time to install the EVA is worth. The Aqua Traction was $30 a sq ft installed. My boat was about $1800 installed.

    You are definitely dialing in better than me. I don't have the hang of it. Trying to replicate your tactics isn't as easy as it sounds. I scanned for 3 hrs today and didn't see a fish. Finally blind casted one. I switched to perspective after seeing your success and now I just don't see fish. Also are you sure you can't record. I have the 106sv and I'm fairly sure it records screen to an SD

    Jeff, I live about 10 minutes from the lakeshore boat ramp on doctors lake. I used to live in St Augustine and fish for redfish all the time. I sold my boat and had to get a kayak when I moved to Green Cove. I’m going to fish Drs lake in the morning, any tips on where/how to find redfish (or other salty species) in the lake? The river is much different from the marsh Im used to and I’m struggling to consistently find reds.

    Ya should give Guana Lake on the other side of the dam a try if a kayak is your favorite way to go, fish the outflow and deeper spots more in the middle of a creek with a jighead soft plastic of sort. I also really like the creeks right now for Flounder, my favorite being feeder creeks right near larger deeper water that flows close to the rivers like the St. John’s and st Mary’s. Fish closer to the banks and grass lines early in the morn and then to deeper spots more middle of the creek when it’s middle of day to get your lure in front of those fish holding low to stay cool. Good luck

    Jeff, I bought one of these too. What you're missing is you must remove the top and bottom Bezel. They just pop out. I used a 'drift pin punch' and gave bottom both sides and top both sides a bit of a rap. They popped out unbroken. Put the 4 nuts, bolts and washers thought the holes and was done. Maybe 20 minutes start to finish. Fishing the Tennessee River. No issues! Hope this helps!
