Chart
Get yourself a chart so you can see where you intend to go, its not just heading out there and expecting good bottom straight away, you will still have to look around

Got a GPS? Because I'd be
Got a GPS? Because I'd be pegging in distances I know from where I fish it's 30k's to the edge and then further beyond. But it's also no given on fish still have to sound around to find the fish. Just make sure you plan your day.
Love the West!
