*Deeper* CHIRP +2 Review including setting up, making bathymetric maps and tips

[@danialgarratt504]

It is advised to use this with your spod/marker setup, braid with a 50lb leader. It’s 92g so not light, it’s hardly aerodynamic either! Also as many others have said it’s essential to turn off mobile data and WiFi assist, keep the device high up to maintain VLOS - wifi and water do not complement each other. Also as you mentioned might be worth turning off your WiFi on the go pro and any other devices which may be causing interference.

Hi Danial, Many thanks for your message and tips, greatly appreciated. I nearly learnt the hard way regarding there braid!!

​@@mikeajcarpfishing1415 No problem, good video! My first outing with mine, was on a new syndicate. Turns out the deeper is as much a pike magnet as it is a sonar!

How are you finding the drop out in signal to deeper to phone mate? I’m looking into getting this model but have friends with previous models saying they have the same issue with it dropping out after anything past 20meters. All the other videos of this deeper on your tube are sponsored I think so after a honest review. Ta mate

Hi, many thanks for your comment and query. Since the initial teething problems with connectivity (that I mentioned in my review) I have not had any issues and regularly use my Deeper at ranges between 50 and 100m. The connectivity issue for me was because my GoPro and/or ear pods were also automatically connecting to my phone. To resolve this, when using the Deeper I ensure it is the only device connected. I hope this helps? Kind regards, Mike

Nice review thank you for posting. Did you turn mobile data off on your phone? This helps a lot with connection issues.

[@mikeajcarpfishing1415]

Hi Richard, thanks for your comment. Yes I tried that, also tried putting the phone onto airplane mode. Not sure if it was my GoPro trying to compete with it! Cheers, Mike

Hi Richard, Yes I tried this and it helped thank you, I think part of the problem for me at one venue was the local geography i.e. lots of trees etc. Cheers, Mike

Surely these come into their own in winter months ?

[@mikeajcarpfishing1415]

Yes, 100%

[@nightcarper7067]

Have you tried the night cover? And is it effective?

[@mikeajcarpfishing1415]

Hi, thanks for your comment. No I have not tried it at night yet but hope to do so soon. When I do, I will upload a short video. Cheers, Mike

I use the night cover all the time it's a lot easier to spot at range

[@mikeajcarpfishing1415]

@@AlexLifts1210 Hi, Alex, thanks for your comment. I have started to do the same. I agree, it is a lot easier to spot. Cheers, Mike

where does it read? Toward you?

Hi, not sure I understand your question

[@iulianmitescu4154]

Hello, I have a deeper chirp 2 sonar! I used it only once and it worked without any problems, I was able to connect deeper with my phone without any difficulties! the moment he apologized for the battery, I inserted it to charge it and in the next game I couldn't connect deeper to my phone! I specify that it connects to the phone when it is charged, and when I remove the charging cable and insert the deeper into the water, the connection with the phone can no longer be made! The deeper device is no longer visible in the wifi section! I also cleaned those pins on the back of the deepest, but I still can't connect it! I'm waiting for answers! Thanks!

Have you contacted the Deeper customer service. I have found them to be very helpful.

Turn off your mobile data while using the deeper
