How deep for the dragonfly?

 Hi guys,

 

just wondering what depth of water you have used the dragonfly in and how did it perform?

looking at getting one with a view to occasional trips to exmouth fishing up to 100m

 

cheers

Says it can go well below 100m (dependent on a number of factors obviously)

 Sorry I can't help with that mate, I've never used one. Understand fully about real feedback, can't always trust everything you read on the internet.

 Hey mate I had it in 110m of water, didn't use it much because I had my lowrance on but noticed it was picking up bottom. Used it in 60-80m comfortably though getting good soundings. Obviously the downscan doesn't work at that depth.
