[QUOTE="Weldorthemagnificent, post: 487674, member: 22139"] I mount mine on the transom. Since I like to use it at speed as a depth finder to try and avoid surprises. Mine is a retractable mount as I beach my boat on rocky shores often and I can raise it up to protect it. I fish primarily bass, pike, walleye so I am mostly casting away from the boat so I'm not using the fish finder to find fish to cast to. I observe it to find bottom structure and note what depths I'm seeing fish at. For example, if I'm seeing more fish in 8 ft of water, I'll back off to deeper water and cast in to there. In these instances, it doesn't matter which end of the boat the transducer is on. If you jig vertical a lot I can see where it makes a difference. I fish off the back if I'm jigging.
