would I be better off getting a aqua-vu scout from ebay than the velixar, because the place we ice fish are not over 15-18' deep and I could use it other times off the year compared to the velixzar.
what is the best velixar unit for the money for the guy that only gets to go icefishing now and then.

I have both cam,. and vex.. Trust me you will be way better off with the vex. and you can use it all year long too if you chose.That said you can get by with a fl-8 but I'd highly recommend going with an fl-18.Cam. are highly dependent on clear water vex. aren't.
:D Give a man a crappie you feed him for a day...teach a man to fish for crappie and get rid of him for the weekend!!!
For going every once in a while,I'd recommend a Vexilar FL-8:D
Simple to read,yet affordable.:D :D

Either way when you can have a real time locator in your arsenal ,you'll be in more fish more often.
Features,and price.You get what you pay for.:D

Hit my link & go to Vexilar to see all of the differences.
I have an FL-8. Wouldn't go icing with-out it. The 18 has more bells and whistles that may not be that useful to a guy who only ice-fishing occationally. I fish alot on ice and even use it in my boat and am quite happy with the FL-8 for over 6 years.
