I've always debated on getting one but of the price I always double think it but every time I get skunked I'm like " I only I had a fish finder" let me know how it's on the canoe maybe I'll get one for mine! I'm dying to catch something bigger then a panfish this summer

Well so far the fish finder has not helped me catch a single fish. I've been using it only for Lake Trout.

It has helped me find schools of fish, but this has not yet led me to catching one.

For shallow water, about 10 feet I don't see why anybody would need one. For deeper water that you cannot see through to the bottom, then you would need one to find weeds and structures like that.

If I wasn't trying to catch Lake Trout, I probably wouldn't have one lol.

Of course take this with a grain of salt, I'm not experienced in using it to its full potential.
