  1. does anyone know how the ocean prowler big game handles in bad weather (on the ocean)

  2. what speed obtained from 40lb on big game

  3. Dizzy

    I am trying to contact the owner for you and find out the answer to your question.

    I am in the process of writing an article asking others for advice on which fish-finder is the best option as I am considering getting one for this season - watch this space

  4. Love the article - can you tell me more about the “External folding arm for Fishfinder Transducer” for the Humminbird 47 3D fishfinder ? I would like to get one for a kayak, but cannot find how to attach the transducer (this model uses a special transducer)
