ICE Fishing with the Birdtrap

The Birdtrap provides an excellent aid to ice fishermen. The unit will read accurately when placed on top of the ice provided that a little moisture is formed beneath the transducer.

NOTE: This procedure does not work if an air gap develops between ice and water.

A small amount of water poured on the surface of the ice will provide a suitable puddle in which to place the transducer. Schools of fish can often be located before drilling holes, thus saving time and energy on the part of the fisherman.

In extremely cold temperatures, battery life can be extended by placing the Birdtrap inside a styrofoam insulated chest. A small portable hand warmer placed beneath the unit will also help conserve the batteries.
