Saltwater Surf Fishing - Be careful, you will need to provide proper care to keep it from corroding, just like your other tackle.
Replacement Batteries and Parts - New transducer with battery for 30 bucks plus shipping and handling at the manufacturer website or compare online retailers for a cheaper price.
Basic Functions of a Fish Finder - All fish finders and depth finders work on a simple principle that when a sound is emitted the echo or sound returned off the object it hit is at a different freq. then the original. That different is used to calculate the depth of the bottom or any solid object. The next part is the fish ID part that gives you the fish display. This is because fish are not completely solid and have a Swim blatter filled with air, this air blatter causes a density that is less than solid based on the size of the fishes swim blatter the fish is identified as Small, Med. or Large.
May Not Function Properly if the Temperature is Below 32 Degrees Freezing
All in all this is a great little gadget to take fishing with you.

It finds the fish. Now I have not caught anything using this but I don't think that is the devices fault ha ha. The only thing negative about it is that it lays down kinda at an angle and the button gets bumped turning it on sometimes which will run down the battery level. When you store it be mindful of that, other than that it works great. I get bites all the time, if I could just learn how to hook a dang fish I would be ok. Mine also doesn't have a watch band, it has the band that wraps around the fishing pole.

Floating transmitter has extremely short battery life.

The first day I used the RF-35 unit, I was very happy with it. It was accurate on the depth and water temperature. I used it from my fishing kayak and when the fish alarm sounded I immediately cast and pulled up a crappie. They swim in schools and I was thrilled that it worked.

On my second kayak fishing outing a couple of days later, the watch receiver kept saying "no signal". I made sure I was using the correct channel, the distance wasn't too far, etc. It turned out the transmitters battery was dead. I had a second transmitter with me (the RF-45) and that one gave me a signal, but its non-replaceable battery also died by the end of the day. At $25 per RF-45 transmitter unit, I realized it was cheaper to buy the Norcross Hawkeye F33P Fish Finder that I can use with rechargeable triple-A batteries Norcross Hawkeye F33P Fish Finder. I have used the Norcross only once so far and am happy with it.
