- Compact and easy to use.Very compact and easy to use with my kayak when fishing. I like that I can use rechargeable batteries than a heavier battery inside of my SOT kayak. Rating: - good bang for the buckThis is a portable fishfinder, and is good at what it does. I've used the threaded "broom handle" mount for the transducer to actually mount the transducer to the bottom of my kayak; then install/uninstall after each trip, rather than use the "float". It works great, marks groups of fish, the alarm is plainly audible, the depth seems accurate from informal and shallow water observation. The depth finder is actually the most valuable part of the tool, since it is using the depth and a chart where fish holding holes and channels can be discovered. Yes, the next step is to get a "real" fish finder, but for the money, ease of use, and portability...this unit is hard to beat. Rating: - great fish finderbought this item for a fishing trip to Canada, product worked just like it advertized, would recommend to anyone. For the price you cannot beat it. Rating: - NORCROSS FISH FINDERIT WORKS OK, ALITTLE HARD TO READ THE DEPTH OF THE FISH ON THE SCALE. NICE FROM SHORE LETTING YOU KNOW IF THESE ANY FISH IN THE AREA. HAD USED IT 3 TIMES. WOULD RECOMMEND IT. Rating: - Cool toy!This is great if you aren't moving too fast on the water. It tends to point slightly behind you. I wish it showed individual fish, but only shows schools of fish with one indicator. All things being equal, this unit is fun and informative for the money. One other note: If the bottom is covered with lots of plantlife, it has difficulty determining the actual depth. My recommendation? If you are looking for a 'gadget' to help you see what's down there and don't have a lot of money, buy it. It is fun while on a pontoon, dock, or float tube.
