Post by: born 2 fish on January 17, 2015, 09:22:20 PM: I have a 898 at the bow I would like jigging mode up there also.

I have not been out to try it there is no open water around me.
I won't be out in the boat for a while. I will be out chasing tip up's the rest of the winter.

>:D

Got ONE last trip on Jan. 02 and the 1st over the side was almost 13lbs...
The new software seemed to work well and improve the 2D some.
