Has anyone considered using some of the newer fish finding devices. For 
around $400 - $500 you can get some that read down AND ahead of you.  I 
suppose the depth part would be all screwed up, but it should remain 
accurate to the floor of the lake/sea.. Will The transducer handle the 
increased pressures? No clue...
