Gents,
Fishing post 35 in the South basin for the first time, end October.
Fished the main basin a few times, going back 1st week in August in 47, however I know very little about the South, any info welcome Ÿ™

Has anyone ever used these and had any luck? I've had 4 replaced now and they either fall apart or just simply don't work.
Have asked for a refund, which the retailer obliged however told me they are bomb proof 😂🤦🏻‍♂️.
I been carp fishing 30 years and this is the worst thing I've ever bought by miles!

About as much use as Anne Franks drum kit!

Be mindful that a lot of areas don't allow night fishing and your license is regional so check which region covers your stretch. Good luck mate

Cheers gents I bought it off a chap in dartford called Leigh in 2020 but I've only used it for sonar etc until now, he customised it with a waterproof box and a regulator for battery to always show 12v even if the battery loses some life. Think it must be an older one, I'll try the phone route for now. Luckily I'm not fishing too far out.

I'm convinced it hasn't got it, currently On the bank at lac du der, I've pressed the back button etc and every other button and all that comes up is sonar, down vision and sonar/down vision split screen.

Any idea how the GPS works on the dragonfly 5, I can't see an option for it, just sonar and downview?
Are you sure?
