Pros: very flexible Cons: unit doesn't transmit well in high waves or in less than 3-4 feet of water.
Other than the fact the transmitter has to be fairly stationary, this is a fantastic innovation for the average shore-line fisherman. First let me list the cons of this product. I don’t know how well I trust the auto-off feature (which is supposed to ...

Pros: Works great in my opinion! Cons: Can't reel in too fast, but thats okay!
I absolutely love this gadget. I have an 1966 Shell Lake 12' Runabout with a 1958 Evinrude 35 HP motor. I did not want to put a transducer permanently on my boat. This is a godsend for me. I love the fact that I can cast it out and select where I ...

Humminbird SmartCast Wireless Fishfinder System RF10
by savageray66 ,Oct 09 '03
Pros: great idea, great design, great features Cons: solve the range issues and require a 9 volt battery instead of 8AA
Over the summer I bought and returned 2 of these fish finder units not because they did not work but the range on these fish finder were not as the advertised. The fist one I returned because I thought it was defective, the 2nd I returned because of the range issue I found in the first unit. I am a surf fisherman in Jamaica bay area on the outskirts of New York City; at this location there is relatively light wave action to almost calm water. The only reading I get on the receiver is at very low tide at approximately 40 feet out and at high tide at 20 feet out. The design and ideas behind this fish are great the designers that make the product must fish with it and figure out why the range is not as stated. I would definitely buy another fish finder like the hummingbird rf10 but they must fix their product issues first.
By the way i bought this product in 2003.
