Its been a long winter and spring is not here yet in Minnesota. Ive had time to work on some projects for my Eyra and my electronics. These covers are made out of Gore-Tex for my Humminbird 1197 and Hydrowave. Yes I do know how to sew.

I really think the Hydrowave works great on lakes that have shad and other forms of big school bait like herring, alewives, etc. Now up here in Minnesota most lakes have sunfish and perch as the primary baitfish and the Hydrowave as far as I know does not have sunfish and perch sounds available yet. But whenever I go south to fish a tournament most of the reservoirs have shad in them and this thing can fire up the bass and at times will keep the bass schooled up on top longer then normal which allows a greater period to catch bass.

I might add another strap on the right back slide but Ill have to see if it moves at all. I do have a small piece of Velcro on the bottom that tightens up the corner and also allows the corner of the 1197 to slide easier into the cover that I change from the first one I made. This is the second one Ive made, the next one Ill add a leather pull strap on that same corner with the Velcro just to hide the Velcro and clean it up. I put a leather strap as a pull tab on the bottom(you can see it on the right looking at the face) and seems to work great. I wil be working on making two for my buddy that has a Lowrance HDS 10 and 8 so when I finish those Ill post a picture on here.
