Thread: Brush Pile location??

I just put a X on the side of the boat to mark the spot i was catching them, that way if it ff goes out i still have the spot marked

MrGoodtime it sounds like you've been fishing with Junior Samples & Stringbean.

I used a little Fish Easy 320 and a hand held Garmin Rhino 120 for many years. The Garmin would put me on the pile and as soon as I saw the pile start to taper off and drop down I'd throw a buoy directly behind the boat. (The H-shaped ones don't unroll and get blown downwind and off structure as bad as the round ones). Then I'd make four runs close by the buoy in a tick-tac-tow grid pattern, two on each side of the buoy, then two more at 90 degrees to the first two. Each time I'd be looking to see if what I drew was more robust than my first buoy's graph picture, noting if the top of the pile graphed closer to the surface. If so, I'd throw another buoy. These four passes should reveal the exact location of the pile. Now I have a nice Lowrance unit that cost me an arm and a leg. And I still do it that way. I use to put an x on the side of my boat too. But I sold that boat.

Man, it's tough when you lose your waypoints.

If you could PM me the coordinates I could probably give you a good answer.

Yeah, you are right! But I convinced the guy buying it to pay more money for it due to the all of the valuable information it contained on the side...

Yeah, I bought the boat with the "x" marked on the side and caught the limit. Don't even turn my fish finder on any more.

You guys sure know how to Hi Jack a good thread.
