Fish Finder for Inflatable Pontoon

[Ryan]

Howzit peeps,

I'm currently looking for a decent fish finder for my inflatable pontoon.. Are there any suggestions out there. I'm not necessarily looking for top of the range, but not bottom of the range either..something decent and reliable..

Looking forward to hearing some of the ideas!

Where will you be using it? If it's for a trout still water, the best fishfinder will be a selection of reels with the following lines:-
floater, 1.5 intermediate, DI 3, DI 5, DI 7. More than that , you are wasting your time and money.

I wanted to answer more or less in the same manner, but thought someone would eventually

I suppose for various places, but mainly for the vaal river..

What about the portable ones they are advertising at the top of the main forum page?For R999 seems a bargain

what are you referring to by "inflatable pontoon"

A duck type boat or a pontoon boat type float tube.

If the former, try checking out the Hummingbird range, big screen, big buttons, pretty rough and tumble and it works well enough for finding structure on the Vaal, such as one uses the fish finders for.

I guess rods fall into the waste cat then?

I recently bought a Humminbird for my float tube:

Paid about R1600. I bought it mainly for the ability to see the structure, depth, temp etc. Finding fish is secondary, but the side scan feature is very nice!
