LeXXington Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Hi All: I have a basic idea what too do but I was trying to find if there are any either good pictures or instrutions on how to make a Transducer (boat mount) moved over to a portable ice fishing mount. any tips or tricks to make it easy to use. This is just the transducer the rest of the unit is all set. Thanks Guys for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b2kptbo Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I cut down a old hockey stick, drilled a few holes, bolts with wing nuts. Also uesd a small plastic cooler too hold battery, wires and mounted the bracket to the lid. Will post some pic's a bit later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b2kptbo Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Packed up for travel. Setup ready to go. You may have to rig some type of bracket for your transducer? Also have a suction cup adapter so I can use it on my small 12ft'er. Small rechargable battery from Lebaron $25. Hope this helps, Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fang Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 To help position the trandsucer in the hole I glue a bubble level (sorry no pics) to the top of the transducer. When you place the tranducer in the hole you can then adjust so the signal goes straight down. Very helpful when you are in a little deeper water and your bait or spoon will then show up on the screen. You can stick it on with a hot glue stick to make it semi-permanent if this is the tranducer that goes on your transom for summer season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeXXington Posted December 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Perfect Guys, Thanks.. I was not sure how the setup went, now I see just a simple X marks the spot.. I was over engineering it Fang I think the level is a great idea just too make sure you straight Now all I need is lots of ice to test out my contraption I am going to build.. If others have other idea please post them as you can always build a better mouse trap Great thanks to b2kptbo for the pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Entropy Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I’d be tempted to mount it on the bottom of your toboggan !! If it’ll shoot through the hull of a boat a bit of ploy. won’t be a problem..... “What would that look like?” Keep it mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
