cjc Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 With all these multi FQ machines I've come round to the fact that the lower FQ settings such as B2 and P1 do give you a much more stable platform to work with. This alllows for open screen or higher Sens. Also much better with the big coils. You pay a price for the hair trigger micro gold capability especially where there is any black sand at all. I only run them when Im specifically looking for a chain. cjc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really!? my freshwater sites have heavy black sand. at the same time in , a salt environmentrunning B1 is considerably deeper .but only stable up on the sidewall. but no, those are not my workds anyhow...micro gold sensitivity=B1 / P2.

Thanks Clive, now I understand what you said, and I agree with you that B1 is much deeper than B2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I think is referenced. If you are at three points or more of sensitivity difference, then Beach 2 is the clear choice. I know this to be true as I cannot hunt my location in Beach 1.

Ya, this is the trade off I'm referencing--those low weighted presets give you a lot more room. At the same time--on the dry or sidewall--B1 will really surprise you. cjc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
