can be tricky
went on a charter double headers before sunrise luckily we bagged out by 9 AM cause after that they shutdown, also skipper said when you catch green eyes suggests ur close or just past ,our ledge was AT 250 - 300m.

green eyes
green eyes are like blowies out there, dropping baits will have them around in no time, the trick is sound well,
get your drift, drop perfect so you drop on the fish, big deep ledges are usually harder than the shallower deep slopes that hold GB and puka,
having the sounder set up perfect is also a must, takes some time to get this right,
were you fishing north or south mate? i used to spend hours/days/weeks sounding the deep depths , love it,
somedays the fish were going off but yes they can just shut down instantly

most of my deep drop was south but have fished rotto once , reece was the skipper,

agree
as soon as reachead the bottom it was less than 1 minute , no drift lasted more than 5minutes otherwise green eyes caught same amount of green eyes as did take home species

585
Can you get a decent image to sound (deep) with a 585 with 1kw through hull (M260)?
I havent got mine dialled in yet, but am keen to get out and give it a try.
