If your hoping for a long range this is not the tool for you but if your the kind of fishermen that dosn't want to cast to the other side of the lake then this is an indespesible piece of kit.
Fits neatly to the rod leaving that all important space for you to feel comfortable and there,s hardly any exta weight the only problem that i found was you now need two rods. One for the smartcast and one to use as once you have your area sorted the last thing you want to do is tackle down and find the fish again the grey and black screen works great and for the lazy person like me who hates pluming it's a dream you can even set it to tell you the size of the fish in your swim and the bottom quality.
SmartCast RF25e mounts directly to a fishing rod for ulimate portability and simplicity.
