Are there any good portable fish finders on the market?

Q. I take my son fishing to a couple of lakes and, because I don't own a boat, I always rent one for the day.
Do you know if there are portable fish finders that can readily attach to a rented 4 person aluminum boat?
If so, where can I buy one.
Any help will be appreciated.

A. Links are all for Cabela's so if ya' don't have one in your area you'd have ta' order it Online. Might try your local Walmart and see if they carry any of the ones I listed below. Good luck and hope you and the boy nail the heck outta' them fish ~ with or without a fishfinder ;)...

Google terrain map: I found my property but still can't figure out how to determine its elevation?
Q. Someone told me I could find my property's elevation by going to Google maps and clicking on terrain. I did that, found the location of the property, but don't see any option for determining elevation. Any ideas?

A. I do not know how to see this on google maps. Only see distance

But, try http://www.topozone.com/ type in your address and see if it works. Follow the topo line.

Someone else said : The NASA program WorldWind will open up a map of your house with an address finder, and will show you the elevation.

Try this site also http://www.earthtools.org/

how do you change the finder and trash can icons on the mac dock?
Q. i can change everything else, but since the finder or trash icon won't appear in the finder itself, i can't change it like the rest.

also, where can i get more icons?

A. http://www.google.ca/search?q=change+trash+icon+mac

Was that so fucking hard?
