    Re: GPS question

    I am not familiar with that unit. If it is like my 520 when you load the card you have to go into the menu and select what type card you have just installed. Then you will have to select what state you want the card to read...I assume you will select KY. If you travel to Dale Hollow you will have to select East Tenn. or all that will be displayed is the Ky portion. East Tenn. will display all of Dale Hollow.

    When I 1st got my 520 I figured all you had to do was insert the card and you were ready to go. There is more to it than that...find the corect settings and you should be fine.

    Thumbs up Re: GPS question

    Glad you got your settings figured out...I read on another post where you made a comment that you have never caught a musky in Ky. I never fish for them but do catch them on accident. At green river lake when the water starts to cool down in the fall (sep/oct) it is common to hook up on a toothy critter in the back of coves espically if there is shad nearby. I have hooked several on buzzbaits and spinnerbaits using regular bass tackle. I will lose as many as I catch but I suppose my tackle is a little light for a musky. Typically they are the 35" or less. Ocasionally you will hook a 40" plus shallow but not often. In early spring when that water is 50-60* is when I have had most of my big bites 40" plus fish.
