Portable Fish Finder / GPS Combo - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Adam · 08-18-2008, 04:19 PM

Hello all,

I have been resisting any electronics on my kayak, but I am breaking down. I will stick with my bait tube, but I want a fish finder / GPS. I want to keep this as simple as possible so I am leaning towards a "portable unit" (one that has the battery in it). I have a Hobie Outback and in my dream I would just latch the unit onto a "Ram Wedge Mount", run the transducer through my hatch and be on my way. However, I realize nothing is that simple.

If you have any experience with this type of unit (or have one to sell) I greatly appreciate your input regarding the type of unit and how I might mount it - minimizing holes and wires.

Thanks, Adam
