[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 453426, member: 21536"] I'm not sure I would know the answer, but it might help if you clarify what you mean when you say you want to mount it to the bottom of the hull? They do make thru hull transducers -- but that doesn't appear to be what you mean. If your transducer is similar to the one shown below, the rooster tail is likely caused by the space between your transducer and its mounting bracket (see arrow below). I had the same problem with an old Hummingbird transducer. On my newer unit (now a couple years old) they included a rubber plug to fill that gap -- No more rooster tail. If nothing else, try wrapping the gap with elect tape to see if the rooster tail goes away. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screen Shot 2018-06-15 at 8.47.55 AM.png"]98060._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
