Recap: 1. Set Spot-Lock Options to Legacy. Reset Calibration and Reset (from menu) - drive boat in two complete circles. 3. Perform Sensor Offset (Where is Center of Boat); System; Sensor Offset (improves spot lock sensitivity). 4. Boat Scale: System; Boat Scale; + to choose (Alluminum boat is -2).

Yes, correct if you have already calibrated you trolling motor it’s not necessary but it doesn’t take long to do.

What do i use for the boat scale for a 21' fiberglass Ranger bass boat?
@wildlifeadventures-133 күн бұрын
The factory setting is zero. If the trolling motor seems to strong when it comes on to correct try a -1 or -2.

Docks that are bigger,covered and deeper is where I usually find them to. But I found them under a rule breaker dock 3 weeks ago and there still stacked under it as of this past Monday. Small dock only about 12ft in size, no cover, 7 ft deep. I call it the Outlaw Dock. Only thing makes sense to me is its close to a bridge about 80 yards away. But the channel there is only 14ft going into a flat/shallow dead end of lake. I caught some decent fish under it and theres mostly small baby fish under the docks near it that are slightly shallower. Enjoyed the video!

Hi. i have minn kota micro powerdrive. Do you know how to calibrate the device? the device does not have an on-screen remote control. and I can't find instructions for it in the phone application either. big problem.
@wildlifeadventures-1322 күн бұрын
?? I don't know much about the Powerdrive. Is it blue- toothed to your phone? If so you should be able to find the home screen and then navigate to boat scale.
@brianpeter713924 күн бұрын
Very misleading. 3 of your 4 tips have NOTHING to do with spotlock accuracy. Autopilot mode doesn't have anything remotely to do with spot lock at all to start with. Compass callibration and Offset also don't affect spotlock accuracy in the least. They are for the jog feature. They won't make your basic spotlock any more or less accurate in any way.
@wildlifeadventures-1322 күн бұрын
Thanks for the comment.
@trumpking487410 күн бұрын
Compass calibration has everything to do with spot lock bud. The spot lock runs off gps. Without proper compass calibration your spot lock won’t know where it’s at. That’s how never u hot spot lock it will turn your boat to face into the wind. Try again

What boat model are you fishing out of?
@michaelrobertson8795Ай бұрын
Maybe an active. Short drive on these vehicle's seem to create more Condensation. Which accumulates in the oil. And makes it not perform optimally.

You have any advice to fix problems with iTrack with a Terrova? I record a track, then when I try to troll the track, my trolling motor goes crazy turning left to right like it can’t pick up the course most of the time. I always try to position my boat facing the course and be very close to where it starts.
