Wired Fish Finder

This fish finder does the job on hunting out fish as you can see in the pic found those two hiding in the back area of the lake it put up right on top of them. East to use takes 4 aaa battery's I use the power save mode and the battery's don't get use up in one day and the reading for rock, weeds it shows it on the finder.

Today I am reviewing the LUCKYLAKER Water Boat Fish Finders Depth Portable Handheld Fish Finder which is about $43.I have been wanting to see how useful these devices can be when I'm fishing and it was a decision to try the $80+ version of the under $43 version.I opted for the cheaper version that is wired because what better way to find out if it's useful for my needs.So, what is this device for? It is to detect the temperature range, the water depth, weeds, rocks and has a fish detector alarm as well.For power, it has a background light mode, save power mode, color screen and has a wide detection with a water depth up to 100m.I have read a lot into these fish finders and how the fish shown is not precise because it may include debris or rocks as fish. But I ran several tests and it was able to detect the weedy bottom of the river I was fishing at. Detected a lot of fish but it again, could be underwater debris.The only thing that I wish it had was a conversion from meters to feet. I was surprised to find out how deep it was not far from the bank as it showed 0.6 meters (1.9 feet), 0.9 meters (2.9 feet), 6 meters (19.6 feet), 7 meters (22.9 feet) and 9 meters (29 feet) to where I was fishing at and that goes to show the danger at the river if one chooses to swim in the area or fall from it. So, it's good to have this device if precautionary.I chose the wired version and there a few caveats:- If you are to use this in a weedy area, beware as the camera can get caught.- I would reinforce the two main connections (device and the floater/transducer) because one time I was throwing it out and it detached from the device and was stuck in the water by nearly 20 feet. I was very fortunate because I had my 12 foot rod with a sabiki line and after numerous tries, was able to cast and retrieve it. So now I have a speed clip on the device connector and a locking metal leader line on the other end to make sure it will never detach when thrown.Also, make sure you don't twirl it by cable, but you'll have to retrieve it via cable, especially if you are on a higher embankment.And I guess you can say I was able to test it after the float/transducer and cable fell in the water and it still works, so that's a plus.I have read also that the display eats up batteries, so I used rechargeable Eneloop 4 AAA batteries.So, at $43, does it work? Yes it does.What is the percentage of accuracy, I really can't say. But it detected the weedy bottom (I actually tossed out a camera fish finder to confirm and was able to confirm).But just be careful with the device and immediately make sure to connect the connection on the device to the transducer end, so it doesn't go flying out like mine did.The LUCKYLAKER Water Boat Fish Finders Depth Portable Handheld Fish Finder is a useful tool. While I can't verify its accuracy, it's still worth using as a tool to see what's in the bottom and also for depth. As for finding fish, just know that these devices are not perfect. And debris it detects could be considered as fish.

To check depth of fish

My husband and I just bought a small aluminum fishing boat. So of course I had to buy him a fish finder, after looking at a ton of different ones this is the one I decided to get. We've already used it once and it works great, there are a lot of features we were looking for on this. Like a beeping alert when it does Mark, and measuring depth in meters or feet. It's perfect for taking on and off a boat. We also go ice fishing so we will also use it for that! Great buyUpdate: as of June our fish finder dep5h has not been accurate at all, saying 0 feet when next to a damn known to be over 40ft deep... very disappointing

This a very basic unit that is good for showing water depth.The fish indicator only shows fish and has no size indicator.The bottom indicator does not work very well and is useless.For the money it does ok for my kayak just don't expect a full function fish finder.

I love the size of it, the way I can carry it and need for depth of water when ice fishing in foreign lakes

I have it on m Kayak and it works well. great at reading the water depth. Shows when bait is under the kayak.

Got this for checking depth while ice fishing. I. Pleasantly surprised how well it works for the price. Gives an accurate depth and actually works at marking fish. Very simple to use. Would recommend this to anybody.

I bought this to go fishing with my kayak. I like that it also gives me the depth of the water.

The fish finder is ok but Istill haven’t received the free case that you offered why?

I bought Luckylaker for a Christmas gift for my grandson. Delivery was early, the packaging was lightweight and looks like it's gunna be very compact to carry around. Still under the Christmas tree. However, my grandson will post a new update with all the specifics once he hits all the lost lakes here in Northern Ontario.Thank you, Luckylaker for a affordable and compact fish finder. Grams...

I know you get what you pay for but don’t waste your money. I was fishing in 17ft of water and it was showing 177 ft. I think you could say that it was a little bit off lol.I will be returning the product.

Très bonne qualité
