What do you guys recomend for a fishfinder? I thinking about getting one of the Humminbird Piranhas. Are those any good? Thanks.
Hey Pescador, Ive been looking at putting one on my boat too. From what I understand the speed that we tavel (slow) alows us to use cheaper fishfinders. I’m more interested in the depth then I am the fish on the screen. I think I’m going to get a portable piranha, modify it so I can get rid of the base and put the batteries in a dry box inside the hull. Check out kayakfishing.com, there’s alot of info on this.

About how much do those batts weigh, in the portable piranha?
What do most people use, motorcyle type batteries?
thanks
Mullet the portables use double A batteries. To me this seems to be the easiest way to go but cost the most in the long run. The other option is to use a battery that you mount to the hull. I’m still learning but to me this is something else that thats a little more time at the putin. Go to kayakfishingstuff.com, then to rigging your yak and then kayak depth finder. It’s got alot of info on this topic.
Yah fishing this weekend?
