Fredd Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 I love mine yet and use it in the winter exclusively. They are very easy on batteries and I have not ever had an issue with mine. They lack the color indicators but the grayscale changes as fish get closer. I have been looking at Marcum, but am worried about the battery life issue with all the power thay send down. Clearwater's downfall is the target separation (I always look for the "happy bottom" on mine when fish are tight to the bottom) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaMongo Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 If you don't want it - send it to me. I bought two off of [YouNeedAuthorization] last year - one for me and another for my son. They are still a very good ice fishing rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neighbor_guy Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I used one for years and Years. The only reason I changed was because I started fishing water that was deeper than the 80ft max depth available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main unit doesn't really ever go bad, but check the bottom of the transducer (puck on the cord) - if it is pitted or scratched up, take a pass, you will just get frustrated, cause it will never work good, and you can't find a new transducer for it.
