Garmin 010-01550-00 Striker 4 with Transducer, 3.5" GPS Fishfinder with Chirp

This is a great finder for the money. For ice fishing I started w the supplied transducer and made a mount with pvc pipe. It was difficult to get set right, so I bought the ice fishing transducer which helped a lot. It would accurately mark fish and the jigs, my 5 yr old loved it and became pretty good at using it. This summer I used my pvc mount and attached it, to my raft frame again it worked very well for the money. Great budget buy. Also I took an old ammo can and made it into a carrying case for the battery and transdeucer, then mounted the screen on top of that, great little compact unit. When I get home I just hook it up to the trickle charger never had a problem w battery.

Works great and perfect for what i needed it for.

Very happy with this one. Easy to install. Works great!

Update: upgraded from 3 stars to 4 stars. Would be 5 stars, but I have to keep one star off for having had to go through an exchange. My original unit from Amazon was defective and had power issues. After a couple of weeks of emails with Garmin and attempts to troubleshoot--including them sending me a new power cable--Garmin did an RMA exchange and sent me a new unit. I took it out today, no power issues whatsoever, and it worked flawlessly. It's nice to know that Garmin does stand behind its product. See below for the actual review. --- --- --- --- Lots of features in such an affordable package. I can't imaging boating without it--and I don't even fish. The GPS is useful and very flexible. I use the GPS track feature to map the perimeter of the lakes, which is super nice to have since these cheap fishfinders don't have charts. I do a lot of birding photography, and this is perfect for mapping my favorite birds. The sonar also gives me a good idea of where birds might hunt for fish, so I mark dense fishing areas on the GPS, too. For a while, my boat's speedometer was clogged, so it's nice to have reliable GPS speed on this unit, too. Other than being useful for discovering potential hunting hotspots used by birds, I use the sonar to keep my boat out of trouble in shallow waters. It is so nice to be able to see what's under the boat and to tell how deep the water is. I probably wouldn't be as concerned if I had an aluminum bottom boat, but I have a fiberglass hull--those are not meant to take a pounding, so I steer clear of shallows by setting depth alarms. If I had to do it all over again on the same budget--power issues notwithstanding--I would definitely buy this. Now that I have had a taste, I do wish I sprang a little more cash for a Plus CV unit for the contour mapping feature and for the clear vu radar, which looks pretty nice. And, my dream unit is one of those echomap units because they come with charts and have all the features of the striker series, but I'm just doing lake boating, so I don't really *neeeeeed* charts other than for the satisfaction of knowing I could have them. Anyway, I fully recommend this product for anyone with a powerboat, and I am sure I would be just as useful for people who do kayaking, too.

Lots and lots of features on this 'budget' unit. First the GPS. There is no map showing shoreline etc, just a blank expanse where you can add waypoints, islands etc. Course and speed can be displayed, as well as laying 'breadcrumb' tracks that you can follow for your return trip. If you elect to follow your track back, course and deviation from course indicators are available, and well as distance and eta. The transducer for the fish finder is a dual frequency/beam for narrow or wide underwater searches, and can be displayed separately or at the same time. You can also display the GPS and underwater information on a split screen. There are literally dozens and dozens of menu options to customize the display. As others have mentioned the print instructions included are sparce at best. The online user guide is better but still not all that great. If you want to get an idea of the capabilities of this unit and/or learn how to really use it, the '1cast 1 fish' series on YouTube is highly recommended! I believe that this Garmin Striker 4 unit is one heck of a value for its low price.

Ice fishing... Made three holes, two for fishing, one for sonar. Using regular transducer just hanging it in water. Adjusted level with bracket included. We could follow a worm from the surface to 31 foot depth. We could see our #8 hooks at the bottom. Machine predicted a fish every time before we got a bite, so we we're ready to set the hook. Fish alarm didn't work for bottom fish, but dual zoom made it so we had a good view of the bottom and could see when they were rising for our lines. We could distinguish which line they were after by depth. Very accurate. Little noise on screen. Amazing for the price. I was worried about the transducer not being ideal for ice fishing, but I have no need for anything better. 7ah battery lasted 8 hours from 12.5 to 12.0v. Lightweight, sturdy, and very flexible mounting options included. Ability to mark location is handy too.

I use this for speed and depth finding not necessarily for fish I believe the speed is accurate the death is fine and it does show voltage on the battery

The standard striker4 comes every thing needed to mount on a trolling motor. It has the smaller transducer (about 3 inches long) and should fit most trolling motors. The box also contains a trolling motor mount adapter for the transducer and a fixed pedestal for the display.

ワカサギのボート釣りに使用。魚探は初めてだったが操作がシンプルなので特に取扱説明書を読まなくても問題なく使えます。表示内容も安価な魚探のように簡易的なものでなく本格的。仕掛けが落ちていく軌跡もはっきりと映し出されるので棚カウンターの無い手巻きリールでも中層の群れに仕掛けを入れることができます。 取説は英語ですが、付属のものはもともと取り付けパーツの組立説明くらいしか書いてないのでイラストのみで判断できます。ちゃんとした取説がなくて困るのはどんな機能があるかが細かく把握できないことですが、海外モノですがYouTubeの「Garmin Striker 4 Sonar Features」「Garmin Striker 4 Waypoint GPS Navigation Features」で細かくレビューしてくれてますので英語が分からなくてもどんな機能があるかだいたい分かります。 私がワカサギ釣で便利と感じているのは「Zoom」と「A-Scope」です。私がよく行く釣り場は水深10m前後ですが、ベタ底で反応が出ることが多く湖底と魚影の判断が紛らわしいのですが、「Zoom」で底を拡大表示することで画面が小さくても判断しやすくなります。 「A-Scope」は商品説明にもあるフラッシャー表示を円ではなく通常表示の横に縦に表示してくれるもので魚影の分布をリアルタイムで判断しやすくなっています。 GPS機能は便利そうですが、よく行く場所なのでポイントは周辺の景色で判断できてしまうので使っていません。 バッテリーは付いていないので別で準備する必要がありますが、手近で好みのものを使用状況に応じて選べるのでかえって便利かも。私は「LONG WP5-12E 12V5Ah」を使っていますが、7:00～16:00までつけっぱなしで問題なく使えています。 振動子は付属の取り付けパーツを一部利用してホームセンターで買ったアルミアングルと組み合わせてレンタルボート専用にコンパクトなものを自作して取り付けています。 他の魚探とあれこれ比較してけっこう迷いましたがこちらを購入して良かったと感じています。 とにかくコスパは高いと思います。

Tudo nos conformes. Depois de comprar fiquei com dúvida, tem descrição errada do produto, achei que tinha comprado com a tela maior.

It's a decent little fishfinder/GPS for the cost. There are no maps/charts loaded or available on the GPS -- it's an old style unit that simply tracks your route to make it easy to find your way home. Simple to install. Connect to power (make sure it's fused) and run the cable for the Sonar. I mounted the sonar unit inside the hull using 3M 5200 adhesive and it seems to work well to track the bottom (note that this is not the recommended mounting option). It's a Chirp Sonar unit so uses multiple frequencies across a range so is less prone to interference. So far so good.

كما هو موضح و مكتوب لك لو كان فيه بكج مع البطارية اريح من الانتقال من مكان الى اخر بحثا عنها

I didn’t like this product and I have to return it back. Please help me to return it
