bigcreekdad Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I figure never too soon to start planning. We are heading to Pickle Lake in June via White River Air. I'm looking for a fish finder and a portable mount to use on the 14' boats that are at the outpost cabin. I saw one mount on You Tube that attached magnetically to the outside of the boat, but could not seem to locate a website. In any case, what suggestions do any of you folks have? Thanks in advance.

Terry Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 most boats are aluminum or fiberglass a magnet will do nothing you can buy one with a suction cup , it works well a transducer on a cut hockey stick and a clamp works well too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeytier Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 I prefer the suction cup, but the hockey stick will also work fine. Super easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porkpie Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Just get the suction cup mount and remember to tie it off. They occasionally pop off of the boat, but not so often that it's a major hassle. I've used one for years on the boat at our cottage. I just pop the sonar from my boat into a porta pack, and I bought a spare transducer to use with the suction cup mount! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
