Thanks for your replies John. I've actually read your write-up recently. Thought I was going to get it out this weekend but had a little repair to do on the front deck before I could mount it. Looks kike a helix 7 is next for a front graph with the US2. Finding them pretty reasonable on ebay. May try Brian @BBG first. Momma says I've spent my fishing allowance for the year (lol) so we'll see. Spotlock was my main reason for purchase. It fits my style very well. Next weekend looks good so far with the weather and maybe an evening trip before then.
