Hey all.  I have an older Lowrance X100C that I've been using for ice fishing the past three years.  I have been using my skimmer transducer mounted on a stick, and, it has done the job for me.
A couple weeks ago, I broke down and bought the ice transducer for the unit, knowing that it would be more convenient than the stick set up.  I also figured I would get better readings with it.  We fished 62-66 feet of water this past weekend, and, my readings below 40 were definitely no better than with the regular transducer!
Anybody find the same thing, or have any tips?  I adjusted the sensitivity, but, as I get up over 85 % where the jig shows up better...I get so much interference that it negates the positives.

Cheers,
Frank
