Fish Finder
#20
Ken (and group),

Slowly over time, I go from one fishing style to another {deep sea, stream fly fishing (& heavily into fly tying), pontoon fishing with big lures and swimbaits and spin casting, then shore fishing, controlled depth trolling on friend's boat, ice fishing (about to start my fourth season) and someday fishing from my own sailboat with fancy I-Pilot, mapping and electronics}.

But, for now (ice fishing), I agree and do plan to run around augering a lot of holes. For that plan, I have a Nills 4-1/2" hand auger because it's light to carry and fast to drill through ice and a good size for the transducer and camera. I won't need to send the camera down every hole. Just the transducer alone will most often tell me what's there unless I don't recognize the bottom reading. In case, I send down the video camera as I also gain ability to recognize the new bottom reading on sonar. Perhaps, for most readings, depending on the ice quality, I might be able to simply and quickly read through the ice.

You're right. It would be a lot of running around doing that compared to having recordings from boating. Perhaps a wet water boat fisherman might want to team up with me for ice fishing. Hint. Hint.

If so, I have plenty of high quality ice fishing equipment to invite friends, so any boat fishermen who is new to ice fishing can give it a try by teaming up with me.
