It does give you the depth of the water, but not the depth of the fish. It has a weird system for showing the fish and I am not sure it works as described in the instructions, but when it was showing fish on the bottom, we were getting bites.
Can't mount it to a boat easily, but according to the instructions it would work just fine in a canoe. Just put the transducer in a plastic bag of water with a twist-tie around the wires and let it see through the bottom of the boat. The instructions show how to do it. It think it should work.
As for trolling, I don't know. It is primarily designed to look down. I guess it should show fish as you pass over them. For $30 how can you go wrong.
