Vexilar or Blue Polar hand held depth finder ?

[Tuna]

I"m looking to buy a portable hand held
depth finder. Looking at Vexilar or Polar
any info would be appreciated.
Thanks

Do you own any type of locator sir?

If you do, let us inform you that you may read the depth just as effectively with your graph/sonar through the ice as you can with a hand held depth gun.

All you need is a little water on the ice to make "continuity" so to speak, place your transducer in the puddle, and you're all set to go.

I've been using my Zercon Classic,
I just want a small quick refence. Fish
alot of rocks so would make thing easyier.
Some thing to caring in pocket. Just adding
to the collection. I realize I will still
have to carrier a shovel and water.

Thanks

Go with the Vexilar. It not only reads through the ice and shows depth it also is a fish mood indicator. A great tool for learning, finding, and catching fish.

Good Fihsin, Matt.

A Vex/Marcum is more pricey but they do alot more that just show how deep it is. If money is not an issue, I would definitely buy a real-time 3-color flasher. It's difficult for me to not go fishing without my FL-18

Hey guy's what I mean with the Vexilar is
the yellow one that tells me the depth only.
They sell for about $130. Its small that
looks like 3-c size battery flashlight.
The blue Polar is just alittle bigger.

Thanks for the reply's

I used the Strike Master on Mille Lacs to locate edges of the flat's very quickly for rental houses. Never had a problem with it and it worked all the time. Much easier than lugging a locator around.

I have the Vexilar and like it alot. It is so easy to use just put a little water on the ice and push the button. I use it alot trying to find the dropoff on a reef. I have a vex fl 18 but think the portable one is a much quicker way.
