Guys looking for a little insight on where to mount my structure scan ducer on my puma, also where do you mount the 2d ducer, glue it inside the hull or mount externally to read water temp. Please help

The transducer on 2D is NOT the right puck as you need one with a shunt lead for a separate temp sensor from the transducer. Most mount the Side Imaging transducer in the center of the jack plate on transom, or you can add a Transducer Shield and Saver and bolt it on the jackplate. You will need an extension block also for this install.
Do some careful measuring. I recently mounted a LSS2 transducer on my Puma/225 Opti/6" Slidemaster JP. Mounting in the center under the JP results in the motor hitting the transducer when trimmed down. I mounted mine just to the starboard side of the jackplate. Not happy with where it had to mount, but due to size/length it was the best option.

does the Lss-2 read water temperature?

I think I looked everything over and I'm gonna glue the lss2 under the step, and epoxy in hull my skimmer. It's a no brained to glue to on the underside of the step and not have to drill any holes.

So how to set the lss2 dice to read temp, and not from my skimmer that is mounted inside of the hull

I have two gen 9's networked. I used Transducer Shield and Saver on my 6" slidemaster. You have to take it slow and drill and tap the side plate cover but it turned out great. I only use that one for imaging, I have a thru hull puck for 2D while on plane and have a temp sensor on the NEMA backbone. I use a HDI on the troller.
