I have a Eagle Fishmark 480 mounted on an Alumscraft Trophy 175. I currently have it mounted about half way between the outside of the transom and the center line of the hull. It appears to be approximately half way below the bottom of the hull as the directions state to mount it.
The problem: I constantly lose the signal anytime I start to move indicated by the depth reading blinking at me. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it other than at high speed I lose the signal every sinlge time. I also get alot of "noise" on the screen when I am moving which makes it nearly impossible to see baitfish schools and fish.
I have messed with the sensitivity a little and some of the other settings but to no avail. I am sure this subject has been covered in other posts on here in the past but wasnt having much luck searching this specific topic. ANY suggestions woud be greatly appreciated. Change of wiring? Moving the transducer? Different settings? Hope you guys can help. Thank you in advance for any advice.

Building starting next spring so maybe next Sept? There's electric on site so I'll pull a camper out there next summer and live there. I'll shower at the gym, work or in the nearby lake 😆
There were some leaves changing when I was at the cabin a couple weeks ago. Headed back up on Monday, it'll be interesting to see how much more.
The ferns were also starting to get brown.
Livin’ the dream!
We had 45 in Little Falls when I woke up this morning. Been seeing leaves turn yellow for a couple weeks now. Just got done with a neighborhood walkabout and even some green leaves are letting loose and dropping.
Lakeshore was kind of out of my price range, less than desirable waterfront is 50k an acre minimum and nice lakeshore is 100k+ an acre. I got just under 7 acres up against state land out in the woods, building about a 1400 sq ft home and 24x36 garage. As maintenance free as possible, clover yard too. Can't be doing chores instead of pestering the walleye. I think we got frost last night
