fish finder questions
Greetings,
The time has come for me to buy a finder. I'm completely confused as what to get. I fish in 8 - 10ft punts which I have been buying very cheap (due to leaks and damage) patch em up and leave em around sydney harbour foreshores. Coupled with a minn kota 42lb I achieve consistant results. Reading past forums I note that you can get a transducer which reads more or less horizontally which seems to me as the kind of system required for fishing snags etc. My budget is up to $500 and needs to be transportable so to use in the different punts. Am I dreaming or is there something that will suffice? The man at my tackle shop said that the garmin ff 120 should do the job. Please help

I know that Humminbird has a sounder that sounds around the edges of the river bank as well as what is below the boat. Go to

Hi wingala, This is the only model I know of that has the really wide scan.
http://www.humminbird.com/products.asp?ID=379 But even it is only 90 degrees (45 either side). And I don't think you'd be any where near the 500 dollar mark, closer to $1000.
