    That is one really cool setup. Love the ammo box battery holder/DF mount.

    I knew you had to have a great rig for all the fish you catch.
    Every day is a holiday and every meal is a picnic.

    This makes me want to add a depth finder to my yak.

    flintcreek,

    You have know idea how cool it is to mark a stump, then return a year later to within 10 feet and catch a crappie off of it!

    I just worry about flipping and possibly ruining my depth finder. With my record for swimming lately it might be a real concern. I have a side imaging unit that I have been wanting to pull off my boat and mount on the kayak. A lot of the areas I have been fishing I have not seen the need for the depth finder...but a lot of those areas are not really fishable right now. I was up at Fall Creek Falls Lake in TN last weekend and if I had been fishing I would have had to have a fish finder to do any good. Have you ever flipped with the depth finder mounted? Just curious.

    Only flipped a kayak once, water was 33 degrees and it was winter in Missouri. I've made it a point to stay out of the water since, LOL.

    FYI, I put a couple bungee cords over the box and attached it to the cooler mount. It will stay in place even if the kayak flips.

    Most DF are waterproof I think. I would think it would survive a dunking better than I would.

    I know they survive pretty good rains...but I wondered about a complete submerging. I have survived a couple of warm weather dunks this year and lived to laugh about it. Big man small kayak did not work good and I was not able to share my big kayak with a nest of red wasps.

    How do you paddle it? Or do you have a trolling motor on it?
