You can buy an ice transducer for most units , hey have a shorter cord and bottom weight and a different cone pattern.
Yup, that'll work as long as your cord is still somewhat soft in the cold.
My ice ducer will shoot through the ice without drilling. Not sure if a skimmer will do that
Try that on 7" of white ice and get back to us with the results.
Worked great on 3 inches of white ice with 9 inches of clear yesterday . i throw it down to check depths sometimes when looking for a new spot but it's in a hole when I fish
When I first used my boat rig I mounted it with zip ties to an old tip up, then you just open up the trap and used that to keep it level and in the hole. You can get fancy and make the vertical adjustable to drop it further in the hole.
