Showdown

Anyone bought the Showdown yet? Made by the people who brought you Aquaview........ i know its the re-vamped VPG that bombed last year, but that was for connection problems and weak components or something.

Basically from what i heard about the unit, is they made everything streonger, and better built, renamed it "Showdown" from "VPG", and shazaaam, a vertical flasher is born again.

heres a link....

its got such fine target separation, you can pick out individual minnows.


who has one and who likes it?

and i should mention, you can put water on the ice, and this think will read the depth under neath the ice. Nice to know before you drill.



here is a the owners manual i foound online........

I am watching a video right now I got in my ice fishing magazine and it has the Showdown on it. It looks very interesting and the guy had a school of smlets on there and it showed individual minnows. Really cool and might be the next think on that list.

Here's a discussion about them from a different forum - thought it might help as there are members who have used the new showdown model.
