Small and simple to use. Picks up fish just fine. Screen is small, but of course it is, hold it closer to your face if you want a 7" version.

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2020
I do not have a boat of my own, depend on friends or rentals to get on the water. I also do a little ice fishing and wanted a portable fishfinder. This Garmin is phenominal-a fishfinder and GPS in a small, easy to transport package. It is about the same size as my cell phone. Picture is clear and easy to read, despite the smallish screen size. Assembly instructions were sparse, but understandable enough to get the job done. The cables wrap up nicely inside the cover and there are many pockets in it to store fishing supplies. Operating the unit requires some practice as there are many options available. The operating buttons are straight foreward, but the menus are not always intuitive. All in all, this unit fits the bill for my needs. Only regreat is that I did not spend a few more dollars to get the 4Plus model as it has more features a a slightly larger screen.

I have a Vexilar FL-8 and I bought this so I could keep one at the cabin and one at home. This has become my favorite fish finder. I thought I'd use the flasher on this like my other one, but I really like the traditional sonar much better. It allows a little bit of history to be read so you can watch your jig patterns and see what brings the fish up from the bottom. I had no problem seeing the screen in direct sunlight like others have said.

The transducer isn't your normal ice fishing kind but it works just fine. It picked up my 1/16oz jig on the screen no problem. The cord can get a little stiff if fishing in like 15 degrees or less making it a little harder to wrap up at the end of the day. The ice fishing specific transducer for this is about 2/3 the cost of this whole unit ($100-120). there is also no arm to hold the transduser away from the edge of the ice hole. I bought a Marcum replacement arm and attatched that and used a Vexilar little stopper bean to keep it at the right depth.

It comes with a battery which was nice. The power cables going to the unit aren't the same connector as the charger for it so you have to take the wires off at the battery terminal to charge it rather than just unplug a quick disconnect and plug in the charger.

The carry handle for this doesn't stick out of the soft case and its more like a carry pocket. The material between the handle and your hand can be a bit slippery if holding it with gloves.

I bought this for a trip to Canada last week and it worked perfect. While I only used a very limited part of it, it was just what I needed. Showed depth, speed, water temp, fish depth, and time. Will use more of the options later, but did exactly what I wanted it for, should have bought one sooner.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best portable I’ve found.

This is my second purchase, the first I gave to a family member. I just love it for its accuracy, portability and reasonable price.

I have a motor home and when I am not using my larger boat I often rent a small boat for small lake trolling and this device is aces.

5.0 out of 5 stars Comes with battery and no interference from flashers when ice fishing.
Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2017
I bought this item because I wanted a fish finder that I could use in the summer and ice fishing in the winter. All my friends use Vexilar flashers in the winter. I was concerned that the vexilars would create interference for the Garmin or vice versa. I ordered my Garmin after reading the reviews but the description did not indicate if it came with a battery or not and I was going on a fishing trip, so I bought a battery at my local store so I would be ready. I was surprised to find that it came with a battery, so now I own a spare. Last weekend I went fishing with my friends at Lake of the Woods, Mn. and fished in heated ice fishing shacks. There were two people in each shack. I used my Garmin on the flasher mode with the transducer that came with the kit and it worked perfectly. There was minimal interference from the devices used even though we were only about 4 feet apart. We were in heated shacks, so I don't know how the cold would affect this Garmin. I did not need to buy a special transducer. I was able to see the fish and my jig near the bottom of the lake in 22 ft of water. We fished for three days and caught an average of 100 to 120 fish per shack each day. I could not be happier with my Garmin. It worked just as well as the Vexilars that cost over $400 and the Garmin is more versatile. I did not have to change the battery at all using it for 10 hours each day for 3 days. I can't wait to try this out this summer fishing from my small boat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything I hoped for
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2019
I've been fishing my whole life, but just started getting into ice fishing this past year, now that my family has a cabin on a lake worthy of ice fishing. As anyone who participates in ice fishing, you know everything is pretty pricey when it comes to gear. I didn't have the money to spend $350-450 on a vexlar. After doing a lot of research, I decided to try this Garmin Striker 4 portable kit. I still have a lot of learning to do, but I am very happy with it thus far. I can mark fish and know what i'm looking at. There are so many setting's to help you know what you're looking for, you just have to play around and find out what works best depending on the body of water you're on. The best part about it is that i can use it on my john boat or kayak in the summer time. The kit comes with everything you need. The transducer it comes with works just fine for ice fishing, you just have to rig it up so it is in the correct position when it sits in your hole (plenty of videos on youtube). I went out and used it non-stop for 6 hours in sub zero weather and the battery held up fine. I just charge it up at home when i'm not using it and you should be good to go. Thus far, i really do not have a single complaint for this product and it's $200.00 price tag.
