hotsky Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'm looking at picking up a Marcum ShowDown Troller fish finder so I'm hoping I can get some feedback from people who have/used them. I read that it can read thru ice which would be handly. Can you also use it from a boat? I'm guessing the boat would have to stay still, but would the cord be even long enough?

Joeytier Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Never used a showdown, but flashers work just fine in a boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tdel Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) I have a Marcum ShowDown Troller Sonar but haven't used it for ice fishing yet. I have used it in the fall on a 16ft aluminum boat when we were drift fishing and liked it a lot. I didn't think my eyes could handle the multiple flashing colours that other flashers have so I bought the Marcum. I bought it mainly for ice fishing and portability but it can be used from a boat too as long as the distance from the water to the gunnel is less than six ft. The cord on it is six feet long.
