Battery
You should be aware that in temperatures below freezing, the battery of both your
Deeper device and your smartphone / table
t will drain faster. Here’s what you can do to
manage this:
Deeper Battery
1.
Ensure the battery is fully charged before any trip.
2.
Remove your Deeper fish finder from the water when you are not using it, and
keep it insulated (for example, inside the neoprene pouch that comes with the
Deeper, or inside your pocket).
3.
Have a power bank on hand to charge your Deeper during your trip. Please
remember that the Lithium ion battery in your Deeper can only be charged in
temperatures of 3°C / 37.4°F or higher (when you start charging your Deeper, a
blue LED will show if the conditions are too cold for charging). Charging in your
car or in a warmed ice shanty are good options.
Smartphone Battery
1.
Ensure your smartphone / tablet is fully charged before your trip.
2.
Use the Deeper Winter Smartphone Case to insulate your smartphone while
using it, thus preserving its battery life.
3.
Have a power bank on hand to charge your smartphone during your trip.
Find the right spot
Judging if you are fishing at the right spot is straightforward. Just drop your Deeper into
the ice hole. The depth will be shown in the center of the circular flasher display and in
the top right corner of the display screen. You can also look for vegetation using the
traditional sonar section of the display screen, where it will be shown in green. This
information about vegetation and depth can help you to decide if this is a good place to
fish.
Drilling a grid of ice holes is also an effective approach. Once you have drilled your
grid, you can drop your Deeper into each hole to monitor how the depth changes and
locate the best spot.
Finally, if you have been able to map an area in summer using your boat / kayak, or
from the shore with your Deeper PRO+, you can use the map to return to the best spots
in hard water season.
