Went to the dam on Sunday, finder was marking a bunch of fish but I didn't catch one.

Are most transducers mounted flush with the bottom of the hull or should they hang below a bit?

Thanks

I have always mounted mine slightly below.

thats good timing i was putting a new one back on today were i tore one up sunday. didnt really know about that. i was thinking slightly up but ended up pretty much flush. didnt read the post till it was done

I use to think the depth finders were lying until I fish with a man who knew how to fish. This guy about the best jig fisherman ever fish with. He would catch 10 to my 1. He could catchem on the fall where I had to feel the bump. So if the finder is showing fish, they are most likely there. ------I think slightly below flush is what you want.
