i think there good but there not really for finding fish there to find ledges and structure and depth but it also shows fish i use mine every time i go to a new lake so i know were to fish at.i think there worth but i caught mine on sale for 35$ at dicks sporting goods last year so thats why i bought it.

yea i think there accurate if it says its 20 then i set my floater at 20 i have never had a problem with mine always gave me the right depth and structure so i think its worth trying if you want to.

hey binkdude if you get one get the rod mounted one a lot easier to read while you wind it in.if you shop around you can get one for about 60-70 bucks had one for 3 years love it its handy i like it for crappie fishing. works well for telling you how deep it is.

i have the one with the console....bigger screen, easier to read....great for new lakes to check water depth....drop-offs,etc...i fish for channels using slip bobbers so it helps me set the boober height...

yea i do like the ones with the bigger screen but i have the rod mount one and it works great for me up to a 100 feet and ye you turn it on then tie the actual depth finder to your line and cast it out make sure you tie a good knot to the depth finder would not want to loose that.

the one that goes on your pole not the watch the pole screen is the best because you can read it while your reeling in.
