Most people have used only one or perhaps two brands of ice finders. Naturally, that's the kind they'll recommend.
Which means that they're all pretty good.
My only one was a Showdown, and I thought it was the best. I liked the long battery life, the silent operation, the heated screen (for much faster response), and most of all the completely intuitive vertical display. The ability to see the entire column or zoom in to the bottom five or ten feet was also much appreciated. Bottom-hugging perch or suspended crappie had no chance to escape being seen - and targeted.
