Thread: conway stumps and transducers

I have two solutions. First way: use zip ties to hold it on. I keep extras and a pair of snips in my storage box, so if it hits a stump the ties will break and not the x-ducer, and I can put new ties on and keep on fishing. This works for the tm as well as the transom, but I have added a rail on the transom that my ducer is mounted to. I can raise it up when I am not using it, and the zip ties prevent breakage when it is down. Second way: buy a mount for the tm that the ducer goes in and it will be protected. If you are cheap like me, make one out of pvc. Cut a length of schedule 40 that is long enough for the ducer to fit in. Radius the top so that it fits the curve of the tm. Put in a notch for the cord and cut two slots for your clamps/straps, and mount it.
