Tiger Shark Coil Info

[kai_gold]

Interested in possibly purchasing a tiger shark when they are released again. Can't seem to find any dd coil options for it, so I am wondering how well the its concentric coils perform in some of the more mineralized freshwater lakes and rivers. What kind of depth or depth loss are you experiencing?

If you are just wading, you can buy an adapter cord and use the widescan coils. The adapter cord connector isn't waterproof so you'd have to be careful.

The Widescan coils are working very well with the Tiger Sharks with the adapter cord. As GibH said they are not waterproof but there are waterproof connectors available.

Do you get the waterproof connectors through Tesoro or somewhere else? If you have to put them on yourself, how difficult is it?

kai_gold,

Why not hold off on the widescan coil until you get a chance to use the TS and see what kind of depth your getting? Joe

Right now I am trying to figure out both the limitations and how far I could take things with the TS before committing to buying one. I have had positive experiences with dd coils in the past, so access to dd coils is of interest to me.

kai_gold,

I hear what your saying, nothing wrong with getting your ducks in a row before you buy. ninety percent of the time I do fresh drops with my TS so depth isn't an issue for me. I have never tried any of the widescans on my TS so I'm afraid I can't help with that. One thing I can tell you about the TS, NO VLF/TR water machine out there is more sensitive to small gold than the TS. Joe
