How do you like the 997? I bought one last year and am using it with a towfish that I built. I love it!

hi

i like the 997 very good for the price
for me it's amazing what you can find with a small unit
my transducer is on the transom but i have some good result so far
with the towfish it must be a lot better
how did you built the fish

... with a towfish that I built ...

What was involved in building your towfish? Are the plans published / available?

Thanks,

I used a piece of 1.5 inch PVC for the body and loaded it with 15 lbs of lead shot.
I built 3 stabilizing fins and secured the transducer to it and that was about it.
If you send me a private email I would be happy to send you a picture of it.
