Fish Finder Advice

[trky chsr]

With Christmas coming I thought I would hint at my kids (pushing 30!) about getting me a fish finder. It will be used mostly from my kayak to probe local streams for holes and such. However I would also like to use the same one for ice fishing so I guess I would need portable model. Any suggestions? TC

Lowrance 67c Ice machine... hands down awesome little unit!

I've got a Humminbird 385Ci that I have mounted on my kayak. It's a neat unit - marks coordinates and lets me know the speed I'm trolling at. It's colour and compact. I can also use the 385ci head on my portable Hummingbird 535 pack which was real handy for walleye trolling on the French.

I've used my 535 for ice fishing & it seems to work.

I like the 67C. Great for ice fishing and I think would be an easy mount for Kayak. Price is right to.

That or the Elite 5 ice machine!

Looks like the 67c is a winner. The X5 Elite is nice but it cost about double what I paid for the kayak:0 TC
