    Default post your jon boat setup

    Im looking to rig my John boat for crappie fishing. I have seen pics of several guys here fishing out of john boats. I love fishing out of my john and love how it sits low in the water when shooting docks. Please post pictues of your boats so that I can get a idea of setting up my boat.

    I have a 14ft alumacraft with a 40 tahatsu stick steer no floors no carpet. Its a nice river boat and fun to shoot docks with. I want to start fishing out of this boat more and would love to make it more fisher friendly for 2 people. I have a new motor guide trolling motor and a lowrance x135 mounted on the rear. Im looking for something to mount to the trolling motor and a good gps for marking trees and other structure (any suggestions). I have found lots of used sonars on ebay for $100 or less just not sure what to get. I also dont have any idea how to use a gps or what to look for when buying one I will take suggestions on that also.

    I have heard of a switch that will allow you to use 2 transducers with 1 sonar but I Cant find it. If any of you have one and would like to help a fellow fisheman out please let me know... or would it just be better to by another unit for the trolling motor? I know a transducer is around $50-$60 for the x135 and not sure how much the switch is so if I would come out cheaper or better off with another sonar I will do that.

    Help me set up my little jon boat without breaking the bank. I look forward to seeing pictures of yalls jon boat setups!
    Thanks!
