I posted this in the saltwater forum, figured I would give it a try here too.
To any who can help,
Each year, my wife and I make a trip to a smallish village south of Cancun, Mexico. My wife goes to relax, I go to fish. I enjoy going out with the local guides. We usually go out on 25' pangas with small outboards and, by many people's standards, fish pretty primitively. We usually troll dead baits or lures and occasionally bottom fish from a drifting boat. What I would really like to do, however, is introduce some electronics into the picture. Does anyone know of a portable fish finder--or a way to rig a "not-so-portable" fishfinder to work in the ocean at depts of no more than, say, 400 or 500 feet, usually a little shallower?
Any help would be appreciated.
Also, if anyone is looking for info on fishing the Mayan Riviera, you can check out my very amateur website at [url "http://www.mayanrivierafishing.blogspot.com/"][#22229c]www.mayanrivierafishing.blogspot.com[/#22229c][/url]
Thanks!
