Bluegill - Big Bluegill

Do you love big bluegill?

Has any one of you float tubers or kyakers tried any of the portable hand held fish finders???  I am looking at a hawkeye hand held portable fish finder.  It has a 35 foot cord hooked up to a floating sonar unit.  This seems like it would be ideal to drag behind my float tube.

They cost between $50 and $75 .  I know they would be handy with this hot weather when the fish are going deep.  I would like some input, so I can decide whether or not to get one.
