Need help buying a fish finder.

[Fishhound]

[#008000]Hey wannafish,

Welcome to BFT !

We have a lot of info on fish finders here. We also have a lot of info on portables or making a portable out of an inexpensive standard fish finder. You can easily make any fish finder into a portable unit. [/#008000]

[#008000]Many people here on BFT have done it so they could use a fish finder on thier boat, as well as on someone elses boat, or on a float tube, or on a raft, or to take out ice fishing.

Here are some links to BFT threads that deal specifically with making a fish finder (of your choice) portable.
