quick question i tried to use my ice 35 out on bear lake this summer while jigging and it wouldn't work also had a vexilar on board and it worked fine so i called humminbird up and they say i cant use it on open water my warranty runs out in dec i just want to know if that's right that it is not supposed to work on open water so i can get it fixed it just doesn't make sense tome why not when you have a hole in the ice is it not open water to the bottom thanxs for any response

A couple of questions. Why did they say it wouldn't work if not on the ice? Second were you trying to see through the bottom of the boat?

they said it doesnt work in open water only on the ice i tried to explain that its worked before and whats the difference you drill a hole and its open water to the bottom and i was just dropping it over the side of the boat my buddys vexilar works great like that perfect for seeing the bottom for jigging up those macks

If it has worked for you in the past in open water then my guess is that something isn't working right. I would try and get on the ice before the warranty expired and check it out. I am with you that if it can see down during the cold of winter it should be even easier in the summer.
