Yeah, if I was trying to hide a hotspot...I caught one accidental largemouth, so you’re welcome to it!

I wondered about that; this is the cool side of a power plant lake, and these were along one of the riprap walls not all that far from the discharge chute, but on the outside edge of the chute. I’m assuming they were put there for some form of erosion control, maybe? That or maybe they’re scrap or leftovers from the plant construction?

Cool shots!

Cool shot !

Looks good!~

Can you please explain what you're talking about for those of us who are technoligically challenged? I have a MEGA and I have no idea what you're talking about.

SETUP tab, scroll UP (instead of down - it's shorter), Chirp Configuration.

Need to be in Advanced mode (out of box default).

It's all in the newer manual, and you can download them off HB site - they also explain this in v1.35 and later software release notes.

You adjust the sliders for your upper & lower frequency ranges there.

HTH.

Here’s a fun fact I learned on my 2nd outing...if you reformat your SD card and use the wrong file format (say, ExFAT for example), your HB Mega won’t recognize the SD card and you won’t be able to save screenshots. So, even if you run across an old sunken rowboat, for instance, you won’t have any really cool images to share online...just blurry, cell phone pics of your screen with a ton of background reflection, and nobody wants to see that.

Lesson learned, when reformatting SD cards, use FAT (or some version thereof...FAT32, etc.).
