These days I would just buy a cheap garmin fish finder which is of course a depth sounder that also shows fish....and more importantly the contour of the bottom. Once you are used to them you can also identify if the bottom is rocky,muddy or weedy etc.<br />Cheers<br />Paul<br />http://www.priceme.co.nz/Garmin-Echo-100/p-885132189.aspxPaul Mullingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05656301521677046663noreply@blogger.com
