Imagine being able to tell what the fish action is like under your boat. It would save you hours of casting into barren water. With an Eagle fishfinder you will have a clear picture of what is below and whether its time to move on, or time to cast.

For those looking for a fish finder that will allow them to locate their fish without breaking the bank, the Cuda 168 is one of the best you’ll find.  You will find a packed-full-of-features system with the 168 EX.  Here are some of the features that you will be proud to call your own.

The Cuda features a 4 ½ inch diagonal screen.  It is a high definition, 168 vertical pixel resolution, backlit screen and keypad, 4 level grayscale system.  What does all of that mean?  It will deliver for you a clear picture of what is below the water’s surface.  It will allow you to see, with clarity the images that your sonar is depicting.  Its clarity is a main point that makes it such a find and you will find it such a great help when out on the water.

The sonar depth is 600 feet with 800 watts of power.  This is perfect for the small lake or for see what’s below the surface in a larger lake.  It has a high performance, 60 degree fish detection system which is highly sensitive and will give you a clear picture of your fish lurking below.  You also get other features with this sonar that will help to enhance its quality.  For example, Grayline allows you to see your fish even if it is up against a nearby structure or hiding on the floor.  Without this, you may never have noticed it.

Where does the beginner adventure racing start out, what work out plan for adventure racing should I use. What adventure racing gear is needed, what will race day be like, these are some of the questions answered by Beginner adventure racing advice.

Some racers have come from a tri-athelon background and for them the conversion is easy, it’s just a matter of replacing swimming with kayak or canoeing.

A work out plan for adventure racing will need to be scheduled for six to eight weeks prior to the event putting in training on the three basic disciplines, running, mountain biking and kayaking. A lot of beginner adventure racing omit training in Kayaking and canoeing. Most times kayaks or canoes are supplied by race organiser,

Running  and Mountain biking should be practised on trails gravel roads and single tracks, starting off with 30 minute sessions and building to 90 minutes remembering to put in some varied countryside and hills if possible.

Navigation is another area which is overlooked; if you have an orienteering club near you it is well worth joining then you can practice your running and navigation at the same time.

A beginner adventure racing does not need special clothes to start with a race vest and shorts or leggings will do fine for the first few races, together with a running shoe or cross trainer which are the most suitable footwear for both for the running and mountain biking sections. You will also need a hydro-pack or bottle carriers for water and snacks such as energy bars or gels. Compass and map holder.

The biggest expense will be a mountain bike, although any bike can be used the most popular one is a hardtail that has front suspension. Remember also to have a toolkit with patches and gas inflator together with spare tubes.
