    I am actually on their prostaff because I have not had any issues with it. It does say in the manual though not to use in less than 4ft of water. If you use it under the correct conditions it works very well for a small budget fish finder. Also it mentions in the manual that it will only work up to 100ft is the limit.

    I've never had any issues with it and I use it on my jon boat. Seems like you just got a defective model. ReelSonar is a great brand and I will stand behind them. I've mapped out a lot of fish on it and it has always been tried and true.

    If you knew how a transducer works you’d know why it won’t see the blue gill in one foot. Most transducers show a 20 degree cone. The circle of area you can see on the screen is 1/3 of the depth your in. So at one foot your seeing a 6 inches of data on the bottom

    Great video.
    Leave this video up.
    To warn people.
    Taught me th reality. Bank creek or pond fishing = shallow fishing, = fish finder is a total waist of time.
    My Lake Wister ave. Depth only 8 ft. YIKES🤯
    Angle of fish finder is veeeery narow in water depth even 10 feet.
    Also:
    (I read google) ..that U need HIGH FREQUENCY for shallow water, and NARROW feild of vision 20 degeees bcuz window field of vision drammatically loose resolution if angle field too wide.
    Also wifi overheats phone in hot sun app drains battery.
    Phones are VERY unhealthy to have on next to skin all day. Not to mention dropping damage phone all th time

    I've been researching a few of these sub $100 fish finders. I've narrowed it down to the iBobber and the Hawkeye FishPod 5X. I eliminated the Deeper Start for a few reasons. But my suggestion to you is you gotta read the info and use it right. That model requires 4ft of water under it to return proper info and also when it's lifted out of the water it can lose connection. FWIW, I'm probably gonna settle for the Hawkeye. I'm waiting on an answer from them on its reception distance. The reviews I've seen didn't reveal that spec and neither does their web site or any package specs I could see there or on Amazon. This iBobber declares 100 ft so bet on 50 or so.

      @@kingusmaximus I finally bought the Deeper Start and it works very well. Connects almost instantly and the app is easy to use and has great features. My reason to get it is that it uses its own wifi not Bluetooth transmission and the range is good. I see the fish, depth and structure clearly. I bought the phone holder for the rod and I use a designated rod and reel just for the finder so I don't have to switch things back and forth. Also I bought a TCL android phone for $38 at Wal-Mart. Does great. I use it for my DJI drone too . Doing that lets you keep your regular phone free for pics and talking/texts.

Great video, people should try this if bank fish especially. I'm not good with technology, don't even know how to create an email 🤣😂, our club pont has manmade sand barges and it picks them up, cast out to it it's only 3' then drops off both sides, Tyvm tc 🎣

    • @RyanRigged
      @RyanRigged  ปีที่แล้ว

      Look I'm just gonna be frank with this.
      A $100 fish finder should be able to do more than fish a radius under 30ft (which is more like 15ft) and be able to properly gauge the depth in a pond.
      The fact that it has so many limitations is truly why it's worthless in my opinion. BUT go ahead and do your thing.

      An individual doing a review on a product on TH-cam should have some understanding of the product including the product's limitations. You review the product -even commenting "Don't buy this one," - and say you wouldn't recommend, yet all the funky readings you got from it are because of your own incompetence and your own operator error.

The IBobber worked really well, and we were able to get over some good fish and bring them into the boat. It worked flawlessly for me and my sons. Not everybody needs a $3,000 fish finder, and a $100 unit works well for their needs. If you're going to review it...understand the product!
