Absolutely epic hunt... So Mike,I few short months ago you polled the forum for the best water hunting settings at which time I predicted you would soon be the teacher instead of the student... What settings do you find work best for you? My Fall water hunting season starts in less than a week... congrats...

 

[Mike K (Ohio)]

Thanks for the kind words...

I've talked to several people and they have steered me to some settings. Which for fresh water this is what I use and I don't mind helping as someone came and helped me!!!! You don't see that very often on these forums like you use to maybe 10 years ago or so!!!!

I have been using Park2 and the only settings I have changed are recovery speed to 4 Iron Bias set to 3. 50 tone and multi freq. Depending on the beach and what I'm finding if I find allot of foil then I might notch out 1s and 2s. I get in the water and it in about 12" of water and do an automatic noise cancel and ground balance. That's about it... as time moves on I will reduce the Iron Bias 1 by 1 as time goes on. I'm using the 15" coil so I generally run a SEN around 15-20. I dug that class ring at 18" on a sen of 15... Hope this helps. This info was passed onto me so I can't take credit lol

Thank you very much Mike..I have the factory coil and 6”... the main obstacle where I hunt is bobby-pins...seems wherever I hunt recovery speed 4 is best... those settings are certainty working for you.... thanks for sharing...

 

[Mike K (Ohio)]

Well another member of this forum took some time out to help me when no one else wanted to and I see it as paying it forward... Heck I'm a nub with this NOX but I've learn allot about it over the past couple weeks lol... So I'll help in any way I can....

Bobby pins are my nemesis as well, unlike other iron they ring in pretty good. -4 to +8 right where small rings and chains hit.

Thats helpful, Thanks Mike. I am new with the Nox and still learning it. I haven't had it in the water yet as I need to get some waterproof headphones. I use my Excal 2 for water but would be interested in seeing what I can find with the Nox in those same places.

I hunt with a guy that has an Excel 2 and he's a shark in the water lol
