I have an extra elite 4 collecting dust and I am wondering if I can set it up as a portable to take ice fishing. 

 

Anyone have any experience with this?

Absolutely!! You can buy the portable soft pack think from Lowrance. When I bout my elite 4 I got it as a "portable ice fishing bundle" it came with a puck and skimmer transducer and came with the nice carrying case that included the battery and a couple of tackle trays that fit into it. http://radioworld.ca...18i-p-8874.html

I have soley only used my Elite 4 for ice fishing thus far and is really the only reason I bought it. Its is fantastic split screen either the flasher and the sonar or split screen the sonar to lock on the bottom but to also see the whole colum. Shoot me a PM if you have any questions about the settings.
