If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

      Motiejus KN wrong! I’ve used both and the ibobber is every bit as accurate and doesn’t disconnect like the deeper unit does, there has been many comparisons between the two over the years and the ibobber has proven itself to be every bit as good, I own both and actually only take out the ibobber because of the connectivity issues known to plague the deeper

    Can this be use for ice fishing?

    • @SecondChanceCoUk
      @SecondChanceCoUk  7 років тому +2

      Yes! But we want you to understand the limitations of sonar technology, too. All sonar needs liquid water to go anywhere or do anything. If the hole in the ice starts closing up, the sonar will be limited by the ice. This also means that if the ice is too thick under the water, it will disrupt the signal, which radiates in a cone shape (with the source at the top point). To avoid these issues, use our iBobber by centering it as best you can. As long as it has a clear path you should be fine.

      @SecondChanceCoUk  6 років тому

      The red part of the iBobber (the bottom) is where the sonar is located and will be submerged. The white part (the top) is where the bluetooth device is located and needs to be out of the water to communicate with your smartphone. This is also where the charging connectors are located, so the unit is actually upside down when placed in the charging dock.
