unlessthewatertemperature
iswithin rather
narrow limits. To find the different
temperatures,
a surface
temperature
meter,
such as the LDT-3000 is a valuable
aid to
your
boat. This unit
provides
an
extremely quick response
to
identifying
the desired surface
water
spawning temperatures
for various
species.
Trout can't survive In
streams that
get
too warm. Bass and other fish
eventually
die out when
stocked in lakes that
remain too cold
during
the summer.
While some fish
have a wider
temperature
tolerance than
others,
each has a
certain
range
within which it tries to
stay. Schooling
fish
suspended
over
deep
water lie
at the level that
provides
this
temperature.
We assume
they
are the most
comfortable here.

The X-40 has
many
different functions,
but
only
a limited
space
for
keys.
Therefore,
some of the
keys
have more thanone function. Each
key's
primary
function is in one
color,
while it's second
function is white. To
access the second function on a
key, press
the
"2nd"
keyfirst,
then
press
the
appropriate key.
For
example,
the AUTO
key
also has the label
"LIGHT."
Pressing
the AUTO
key by
itself takes
the X-40 out of the
automatic
mode.
However,
pressing
the 2nd
key,
then the AUTO
key,
turns
the X-40's
lights
on. The 2nd
key just reassigned
the
meaning
of the AUTO
key
from AUTO to LIGHT.
