Default Bionic Fish Finder

Just saw this little device advertised and was curious.

I don't have a boat so I fish mostly from shore, etc. and was wondering if any of you folks out there have heard of this thing or mo' better ever used one.

Also saw a similar product from Humminbird called Smart Cast.

They are fairly inexpensive so I can imagine they don't do a whole lot but it might help see below the surface. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.

I never heard of it, but I ran google on it and came up with this:

I don't know if it's worth the money, but I would not mind getting one as a father's day present if you get my drift, or birthday present even/???

A little bit nicer unit, would be the Fish Finder on a stick....mmmm....let me run that one for you.... while I'm having a slow day here...hold....

Bottom Line is the main manufacturer I believe, you want a side finder, but here's a link to something similar,

The Bionic Fish Finder looks so cheesy, did you notice how when it turned on it displays where all the fish blips would show, like old handheld football video games?

I didn't like the idea of the Humminbird one either. You cast it out and look at your watch or reel display, looks just as cheesy.

I figure if I'm casting something out to find fish it should be a lure. Even if you just wanted to know depth or structure, you can do that with any crankbait or a Rapala Countdown.
