  • depth/Fish finder

    Got a small 14ft speedboat that I like to mess about on and have tried taking along my fishing gear a few times now. I got plenty of mackeral at the weekend but I was hoping for a few different species. I wanted to go over the rocks around parton but without any depth guage was very wary. Can anyone recommend a cheap depth fish finder for the occasional trips as I think there might be better fishing over the rocks outside of casting range. Cheers.

    Have a look on Ebay, there's plenty new/ secondhand ones from basic chrome, basic colour. I would stick with Lowrance, eagle, humminbird, Garmin. Plenty under £100.
    P.B. Cod 30lb-11ozs Balcary.

      Good advice in the above post. You should also consider adding a spare battery, separate to the one for starting your engine. A £10 one from a scrappy will do to start with.

            Nice idea, would be class if it could be done.

              I would like a glass floor. Do Ebay sell those too?
