Eagle FishEasy - Telling You What's Going On Under Your Boat

Imagine having a report telling you in advance whether you will catch any fish, before you stop the boat. With the Eagle FishEasy 2 that's just what you have, with its clear display telling you what's going on under your boat.

The Eagle FishEasy fish finder is the type of tool that you just need to have on board when you head out onto the lake. Its the perfect fishfinder to help you see the fish activity below your boat. Its like having inside information about where to stop and fish. It will help you to impress your friends by helping you to bring home a full cooler of fish every time you head out.  Here are the Eagle FishEasy 2’s features.

It all starts with the four inch display.  The diagonal screen and high definition 240x160 resolution offers a good sized screen with all the details you need for success in your fish finding adventure.  That is, it allows for you to have a very clear picture of what is down below.  The high definition allows for a clear picture so that you can see what the sonar is bringing back to you.  Having this clarity helps to improve your knowledge of where the fish are!

The sonar on board the Eagle FishEasy is good as well.  You get a depth capability of 800 feet with 1500 watts of power.  This depth is good for just about any average sized lake.  It has a 60 degree highly sensitive fish detection capability.  This means that the sonar is high quality enough to see some of the smallest of objects below and around your boat.  This is helpful to know where to cast to and to know what your bait should be as well.

The other features that make the Eagle FishEasy’s sonar great include the technology known as FishReveal and HyperScroll.  Each of these features is great.  Fish Reveal allows you to see the fish hidden in the surface clutter or in the weeds at the floor. 
Without this, you could miss the fish thinking there was nothing to be caught. 

HyperScroll helps you adjust your setting easily to match your preferences.  And, you’ll get Grayline which helps you to see fish that otherwise would blend into the bottom. 

Each and every one of these features allows you the capability of finding your fish every time you try to.  The Eagle FishEasy 2 is packed with features that will have you smiling the whole way home!

Basic Carp Fishing Pointers

Frustrating as it is, carp fishing is awesome. Carp are really good at sucking in and blowing out suspicious baits.  It’s such an excitement to see the whole action in a fraction of a second as you hang on for dear life while the reel is trembling with a loud noise.

Carp happily devour on the surface as long as you keep the pellets, biscuits, chic peas, bread, and re-hydrated corn coming in, and these are inexpensive baits as well.  Just attach them to the hooks, most preferably the bread.  Have the biscuits softened by dipping it in the water for about 2 minutes, then, place them in a sealed sandwich bag for about an hour.  Since different brands have different textures, just experiment to know which is firm enough to cast.  Another way to hook baits is super gluing the pellet into the shank.

Once they get into feeding, let them feel comfortable around the bait.  This gives more opportunity for the fisherman since they begin to not feel picky.  This tactic can be useful for zig rigs.

As soon as they’re feeding, cast the bait but make sure not to drop the bait directly onto the feeding carp.  Cast away from the feeding area then slowly draw it in position.  While the bait is till hanging, keep the food coming in so as to keep the carp from going away. 

How to Set-Up?

•    Use a hair rig to increase your chance of catching.  As carp taste food first, if they don’t like the taste, they won’t come near it.
•    You may also use a Spider Line, 50 lbs test, then use a leader material that fits the situation.
•    Thread the bait on the baiting needle and hook the hair loop.  You may also use foam dipped in a flavor as this enhances the attractiveness of the bait.
•    Also make a baiting needle by just straightening a long shank hook.  Slide the bait on the shank, then slide the bait from the needle onto the hair.
•    Using a float is also an advantage because it adds weight for further distancing and the location is easily identified.
•    Don’t forget the controller float rig.  A leader can be used which is attached to the swivel to its mainline of at least 3 feet length with a 10lbs Drennan double strength.  A low diameter mono will do just as long as it floats well enough for visibility. 

As experts say, it is not the bait that catches the carp but the method in which the bait is introduced.  Pre-bait everyday, in one spot for a few days.  This makes the carp think that there is a regular source of food for them and by “word of mouth” there’ll soon be a school of fish around.  Just be patient and it will all work.

Fishing in Texas

In the state of Texas, 2 licenses are needed. The first is called the Conservation license. This is a prerequisite a person must have before being allowed to obtain a fishing license.

The Conservation license can be obtained from the Fish, Wildlife & Parks or FWP. This is done by giving one’s social security number and other information that is requested. A valid driver’s license or any valid ID with photo must also be presented for security purposes for the license to be processed.

Once that is done, a fishing license can be acquired which is neither non-transferable nor non-refundable and is only valid for one year.

Fish that are normally caught in Texas are flounder, trout and sheepshead. 

Here are some tips that will help anyone who wants to go fishing in Texas;

1. The first thing to do is get the right equipment:  a good boat, fishing rod, reels and bait.

2. If one is not familiar with the place, it is best to ask the locals where the best fishing ground is then start from there.

3. Hooks can be in different sizes. The right hook for fishing is dependent on the kind of bait that will be used.

4. To prevent injury especially when taking out the fish caught in the hook, it is advisable to do it using wet hands.

5. The primary source of food for Seagulls is fish. If there is a flock in one area it means that place is good for fishing. One should approach quietly and set the bait and just wait for the fish to start coming in.

6. Some fish stray when the water is clear but it is quite difficult since the fish can also see the bait. To be able to catch more fish, the best place to do it is in deep water.

7. It is also advisable to try a variety of bait when fishing. Some fish can easily be caught with one kind while others are not. It takes practice to get it right and patience for the fish to come out and haul it in.
