What is your favorite feature of the iFinder?


Question

Posted

I see lots of posts about this unit and the LakeMaster chip. I thought this may help someone looking for information about this unit. Some of mine:

I like the fact that I can find phone numbers for the nearest food, resorts, POI, and stuff like that.

Like having speedo, odometer, and ETA.

Take it from the truck to the boat.

I'll add more when I think of them.

Anything else?

The best feature I like about the Lowrance IFinder's is their price. They are the best unit for the money in my opinion.

The iFinder has many commands that are very much like the commands of my Lowrance units that I have on the boat. Great products!

I don't know if anyone agrees with this, but I think the LakeMaster chip on the GPS has more detailed information than an expensive paper map.

What I mean is, I have found flats on Mille Lacs with my GPS that were not on a $15 paper map.

Ok, my favorite feature of the day...is the hidden analog speedometer trick.

I just got mine a short time ago and haven't used it on the water yet. I did go to Oklahoma for 3 weeks and Omaha for a weekend and took it along. The search for places to eat was a great feature when in a strange area. This little feature impressed my wife!! See dear, I got this so I could find new places to take you out to eat. wink.gif

I should read the manual! I didn't know that the restaurant/phone # deal was on there! I've only used mine a few times on the lake though. How do you do these things? What's the analog speedometer trick?

      Upper Red’s been doing what she does—giving up fish if we’re out there early and paying attention.   Walleye bite’s solid in 6 to 9 feet, especially just off the breaks. Pre-dawn into first light is where it’s at. Shiners on a slow drift—still the ticket.   Later in the day, it slows down, but if we move around and work those inside turns or subtle drops, we can still find fish.   It’s not complicated—just good spring fishing. Clean air, steady water, and enough bites to make it worth the drive.

      Leech made you earn it this week. Wind moved through most days, shifting the bait. Walleyes were spotty, but a few were pulled around Sand Point and Goose Island with slow jigs and shiners—nothing fancy, just working the spots slow.   Crappies gave a nice surprise one calm evening in the flooded reeds—5 to 8 feet, little pink jig under a slip bobber. When they showed up, it was fast and fun for about a half hour.   The trick right now? Stay patient and don’t overthink it. Leech’ll give up fish, just not to folks in a rush.

      Mille Lacs was steady—not fast, but steady. Walleyes are hitting in 6 to 12 feet, especially on gravel edges with a bit of weed growth. A plain red hook and leech is still the go-to—keeps things simple and productive.   Best bite’s been early morning or just before dusk. Cloud cover helps. Smallmouth are starting to show on rock piles and wind-blown points, but they’re not fired up yet. A few more warm days, and they’ll be on.   Overall? Not a lights-out bite, but a good, honest day if we put the time in.

      Greetings,   My buddy and I are headed to the Big V in early June. We've been up there the last two years around the same time. The one fish that eludes us is, surpringly, bluegill.   Here in my home state of Nebraska, if I throw a beetle spin into any sort of structure from spring to fall, I'm guaranteed to catch decent sized bluegill and the occasional crappie. When we're at vermilion, however, we only catch bass and a rare perch on the beetle spins.   Can anyone help me understand why this is? We've tried every shallow structure we can find but we've never caught a single blue. This type of lake is entirely different to what we normally fish (and way colder) so I'm completely unfamiliar with their habits.   I would also love to know where the crappie are during this time of year. We mostly target bass and walleye, but, we'd love to have some ultralight fun with panfish.   Thanks!

      Was a great opener caught them 30+ during day. 7-10 feet tonight. Capped the night off with a 28 inch fish.
