Does anyone out there use this? For $80 it looks like a pretty good deal, I'm just wondering how well it really works.

My wife has one she plays with. If you are Bank fishing it can help you locate holes or drop offs but with the small screen it leaves me cross eyed  cheesy grin cool

i had the one with the watch ...its not bad for what doug said...bank fishing.... i think it only goes aobut 30 yards  much farther it loses signal.... i know there was talk about making a model that have beeter range and a bit bigger watch screen. thye have a bigger screen that you can clip to your pole also..  but for the money not bad i guess..i give it 7 out of 10

I wouldn't even consider it without the rf15 advanced mobile Station, the pixel count on the rod and wrist watch displays are just to coarse to show much detail.  Also your gonna go thru a lot of batteries  sad

The one Lisa has is good on Batt life but like I said it is only good for finding drop offs and holes and depth of course  cool
