Snowed today and tonight it'll get down to 24° so was thinking icefishing is just around the corner.
I have a vexilar FL-8slt dual transducer I've used for last 20 years still works great. This last spring I was given a Garmin Echo 551DV it has a flasher, anyone have any luck using the wet water transducer ice fishing.
I did test it a couple times this summer with a hook/weight, droped line down 10-12ft and nothing showed on the flasher. Adjust the gain and still nothing. So I am assuming wet water transducers will not work very well ice fishing, is this right?
