I know were still about a month away from ice even on Scofield but I just got my first Vexilar and I have a question. I went with the FL-8se and it seems to be all I ever dreamed of but I was wondering about the beam angle of the ice ducer. It came with a 19 degree. I am interested in a 9 degree as well but it is another $80. Is it worth it? I mainly target trout at Strawberry, Rockport & Echo and Perch at Pineview with maybe 1-2 trips to the Gorge for burbot. Will I miss a lot of fish hugging the bottom with the wider angle due to the concept of the "dead zone"? Does it make a huge difference?
