skeeter Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 I just purchased the Eagle Cuda 300 portable fishfinder and would like to know if its good enough for winter ice fishing. Any ideas? Did you even read any of the replies before you asked ???????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisherboy Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Sorry for the very very late reply. I told myself to take some pics next time I took my fishfinder out. But I kept forgetting. Anyway, here are some pics that show how I set up my transducer. I use a white plastic fastener/tie to secure the cable to the portable mount (after removing the suction cup). I have absolutely no problem making the transducer horizontal this way (the last pic shows how it looks when I hold it by the cable). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canon Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 glad to know that summer fishfinder can also be working in winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canon Posted January 31, 2011 Report Share Posted January 31, 2011 never been ice fishing but thought the ice fish finder can work above the ice by putting the transducer over the ice to help locate the place (fish under) where you gonna put your auger to drill, is that right?

A definitely maybe!!! If the ice is clear with no air bubbles & you use some way of insuring there is no air between your transducer & the ice than yes. Thick layered ice with air bubbles in it than forget it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should of got an ICE ducer as i bought another one made for the boat and it glitchy For my setup pictured above, I can adjust the cord so that it hangs absolutely vertical. Then it becomes the same as the "ice" tranducer. I have used it for 4 seasons now and never had a problem. I can read the depth and see my jig or any fish down there. It's just a cheap alternative to buying another transducer, when I already have a portable one. BTW, putting the transducer on the ice and trying to get a reading never worked for me. Having very "clean" ice out there is very rare. Mostly like you need to drill the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
