I had the Ice 35, worked great. IMO when you compare the 35,45&55’s features then the prices, the 35 is the way to go. The features of the 45 & 55 are very easy to do without, and probably don’t get much use.
Just my opinion. I got a deal on a used Marcum and then sold my 35, but there wasn’t much difference between them, if any really.

I have an ice 45 and I love it. It changed my whole fishing experience for the better. The battery will run almost a full 20 hrs on a single charge and the unit itself is well built. The only thing I am changing is the addition of a Marcum arm for the transducer.

And that same Ice 55 I bought off you almost 9 years ago is still working beautifully! Just used it two weeks ago to catch a whitefish in the middle water column that I would have never seen on a camera
