Speckler - You can use the summer ducer, just have to make sure it floats flat. I'm in the same boat, Do I spend $125 to get an ice ducer, genz box and additional mount or just jerry rig it together.I'm leaning toward the latter to see how it works before investing in it
So I took it out yesterday and fished shallow water with it 8-10'. It's okay. It marks fish great which is a huge plus over a flasher. You know they're fish and not interference. However, I was trying to see the jig and was having issues. It is the sensitivity setting I am sure. I am going to try it in deep water,, 20 plus before I make a decision.
The elite 4x works great. I am able to see a size 12 swivel on my line above my fly and jig
