iBobber Castable Bluetooth Smart Fish Finder - Carp and Night Fishing

Product Information

Taking the iBobber out to one of the popular, local fishing holes, I cast out and tried several the functions available on the device. Not so with the iBobber—you have to go to “Waterbed mapping”, start mapping, and slowly reel your iBobber in. With Trip Log, you can save all of the details of your fishing trip, including your location, water temp, and more. The high contrast design and the app’s anti-glare setting increases visibility in bright outdoor lighting so you can use it whenever you want. Now, you may be wondering, “How do I even use the sonar if I can’t access the most basic sonar features?

Even if you have a boat-mounted fishfinder, iBobber can free
you from seeing fish only under your boat. The iBobber fishfinder, along with the app is able to map the contour of a waterbed, check water temperature, view weather forecasts, and lunar phases. Read more about the condition New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging is applicable).We’ll talk about what the GPS does in the “ Other features” section—it’s not there for nothing—but it doesn’t actually help you create maps.

Because the iBobber uses “Bluetooth Smart”, it is paired from the iBobber app, not the Bluetooth discovery screen.We already had a fishing trip planned so it was the perfect opportunity to try it out in several environments. I planned to try out the iBobber in several situations; on the ocean, on a slow river and on a fast river. However the iPhone blue tooth connection uses up lots of phone battery so I suggest having a way to charge your phone on extended trips. The built-in LED beacon and the strike and fish alarms are great for ice fishing, carp and night fishing. You can adjust the settings on the device to match the speed of your vessel, which is useful for trolling.

It says I have 2 big ledges that go up 4ft but it’s a flat bottom it just makes up stuff and people that have no idea whats in the water at a lake or river with low visibility probably believe what they are seeing. Having downloaded the iBobber documentation to my phone as well, I was ready to go on our fishing trip.

The iBobber is a castable fish finder; instead of using a control head, the unit is controlled via an app on your phone. The iBobber is fairly easy to connect to—though ReelSonar advises you to always connect to it via the app and never through your device’s Bluetooth menu.

The app allows you to log the details of your fishing escapades using GPS Tags and the Trip Log features. And it seems it's the app because even looking thru the app menu it scrolls on its own and won't stay still so I can read app details. You will be able to save details of all your fishing adventures with the Trip Log, and share it all on social media. One of the biggest selling points of the iBobber is that it connects to devices via Bluetooth instead of Wi-Fi. iBobber also incorporates a vibrating fish alarm, strike alarm, battery indicator, and flashing LED beacon for night fishing.iBobber weather is GPS based and provides current temperature, estimated high and low temperature for the day, the percentage chance of rain, wind speed and what direction it's blowing in from, as well as the barometric pressure.

All in all, however, the streamlined functionality of the device makes it extremely easy to learn how to navigate and quite beginner friendly. That being said, it’s small, it’s portable, and it can be used for ice fishing, shore fishing, and more. It informs you about the soil condition, water temperature, battery status as well as month and day, moon, sunrise/set, temperature, rain, wind and works as a barometer.
