How many holes do you drill ice fishing to finally find the right depth you want to fish? This unit will shoot thru the ice to get a depth reading but there are some limitations. Lots of air bubbles in the ice will impede a good signal and reading. I used some water poured on the surface of the ice to give a good interface for the transducer. Move it around on the ice a little and bingo, there was my reading I needed. Now instead of drilling a dozen holes with the auger I can scout with the Zebco first and reduce the number of holes drilled. The fish finding and weed/rock structure features are not so important for my application but turning the transducer 90 degrees on a paint roller extension handle and lowering in the hole allows for side scanning out to 100 feet for schools of fish. Single fish won't show.

br /For the price AND its small size and portability it performs the tasks I've been wanting to do. Cheapest pocket-sized unit on the market and a good warranty/company behind it.

The Zebco ZF200 CP4 Fish Finder does like it says. It will tell you if there are fish with in radar reach. Caught a 2.75 Large Black Bass the first day using it. Made believers out of my son and I.
Works Great

The Zebco ZF200 is a great product for the price. It gives you a good depth readout and generally recognises fish. Is just what I wanted for my float tube.
