iBobber: Love at First Cast.
This pocket-sized fish finder is as mobile as you are! The iBobber is the smallest and lightest personal sonar depth finder on the market. It is a castable, portable, and wireless fish finder that syncs with the free app on your smartphone or tablet up to 100’ away. This thing is really cool!
Engineered with patented sonar technology providing accurate readings of bottom contours, depths, structures, and fish, the iBobber packs a lot of tech into a very small package.
iBobber was designed with portability and ease of use in mind–perfect for hiking, camping, canoeing, kayaking, or other fishing situations where size and weight is at a premium.
The free app syncs via Bluetooth Smart to the iBobber device, and allows you to map waterbeds, mark spots, log water temps and depth, add lures, species, and photos in the trip log. The LED beacon, and strike and fish alarms, are great for ice fishing, carp, and night fishing. The high contrast design increases visibility in bright outdoor lighting, and the app’s anti-glare setting helps you see the screen when you are still having trouble.
The patented fish finder displays fish by size and depth to get you on the lunkers fast. Great for finding smallmouth and largemouth bass, panfish (like crappie and perch), salmon, trout, walleye, pike, muskie and other game fish and edible species within 135’ depth.
The iBobber is the best personal fish finder on the market for fishing from shore and docks, and is ideal for kayak or canoe fishing and for bottom sounding areas not available by boat. It works in both saltwater and freshwater, and is very effective at locating fish and structures on ponds, lakes, streams, and rivers.
iBobber is the ultimate in portable fishing tools. Its perfect for fishing trips, in your RV, on your boat for those tight spots, in your car with your collapsible rod or in your tackle box along with your other critical fishing gear. It’s even a great asset to conservationists looking to log water temp, depth and bottom structures in multiple locations over time.

Customers say
Customers find the fish finder easy to use and set up, and appreciate its value, noting it works as well as more expensive models while costing less. The device effectively helps locate fish and identifies underwater structures, and customers like its design, with one noting it looks like a real bobber. However, the functionality receives mixed feedback, with some reporting it works well while others find it not very useful. Moreover, the Bluetooth connectivity is problematic, with customers reporting limited range and frequent signal loss.

Handy tool for your tackle box
A great little tool to help you catch more fish, or at least better understand the water, terrain and fishing conditions. Easy to use, small to carry. I recommend it.

No problems with the app.
Waiting on the weather to break before heading to the water.

Pointless.
Just got it yesterday and tested it today. I found 3 major problems.1. Range is weak. I can cast this thing way beyond the range where it stays connected. It seem to have a maximum reliable range of about 40 feet. If I hold the phone up and have a direct line of sight, I still only get about 40 feet. I cast to about 80 feet and reel halfway back before it connects. I tested it with 2 separate phones. I have a Droid Razor HD and a new Droid Turbo. The Turbo seemed to be a little better when I first tired it, but soon it was only working to about 40 feet just like the Razor. it seems that it was a fluke that I got it to connect 1 time at about 60-70 feet. The battery was fully charged and never dropped below 90% during any of testing.2. It is always 5.2 feet deep. I tested it in 2 small ponds. The depth would likely be about 8-10 feet in the middle to 6 in at the edge. The ibobber always shows 5.2 feet except for a few times when it showed a hole down to about 7 feet. It was clearly not correct when I reeled it to the edge where it was only 6 inches deep. It may not be guaranteed to be accurate at only 6 inches, but it should show the bottom as it comes up.3. The App is a battery hog. As soon as I loaded it on my phone it began to waste my battery. I don’t know what it is sharing or with whom, but it must be doing a lot of it. Without being turned on, it became my biggest user of the battery until I force stopped it.I just got this and have not gotten a response from Reelsonar yet. We will see how their customer service responds. It may need an update or replacement, but so far I am not impressed. I’ll update the review after their response. At this point I would not recommend. I plan to return it if they cannot make it work better than this.***********************Update. I added 1 star for the prompt customer service response. They got back to me on a sunday night. I suspect it was Monday their time, but it was prompt. The response said that it only works to a minimum of 5 feet, but those ponds should have been deeper than that. Although due to the short range it may have been that they were only 5 feet deep when it started reading. I will try to test in deeper water next weekend to see if it works better. I cannot be sure how deep the ponds where I tested it were deep enough.Keep in mind this does make it not very useful until you get to a lake. Small fish ponds, creeks and rivers may not be deep enough to use this at all. It really is only going to work for bank fishing if the water gets deep fast as you go out from the bank. If I can only get 40 feet of range out of it, that is a narrow band of water where it is less than 40 feet from the bank and more than 5 feet deep. I would like to try it with a boat or Kayak. That would likely solve the problem. The product may need to be marketed differently. I hope to test it this week to know if I got a dud. If it still shows 5.2 feet deep where I know it is deeper, I’ll be sending it back.OK I wanted to test it in a deeper lake to find out if it is defective but it failed to hold a charge. I had charged it 1 week earlier and not used it. I took it to a marina where I knew the depth was between 20 and 40 feet to see if it still showed 5.2. Unfortunately it was dead when I tried it so I still don’t know if it works. Either way it isn’t reliable or usable for what I want.

Ich habe mir den iBobber am 21.10.2016 zugelegt. Ich muss zugeben, die Bewertungen haben mich am Anfang etwas abgeschreckt, doch ich wollte mir mein eigenes Bild machen. Ich nutze den iBobber seit einigen Tagen ziemlich intensiv und kann fast nur Positives berichten. Das Gerät ist sehr leicht und lässt sich gut auswerfen. Die Verarbeitung des iBobber ist ebenfalls gut gelungen. Es ist kein dünner Kunststoff, sodass man keine Angst haben braucht, dass er gleich zerbricht. Auch die Öse zur Befestigung ist sehr gut gelungen. Es wurde eine Metallhülse eingefasst, um somit eine längere Lebensdauer zu garantieren. Manch anderer Fishfinder hat dort einfach nur ein simples Loch.Die Akkulaufzeit habe ich ebenfalls genauer geprüft. Ich kam dabei auf etwas über 9 Stunden, was ich als sehr gut empfand.Das Mapping würde ich als “gut” einstufen. Die Strukturen, die mir angezeigt wurden, entsprechen etwa dem des Gewässers, an dem ich meist angeln gehe.Das Sonar finde ich super und anders als in anderen Rezensionen, kann ich nicht bestätigen, dass es ungenau ist. Hier ist es einfach wichtig, dass das Wasser min. 1m tief ist. Wer da nur bei einem Drittel der Tiefe misst und dass auch noch negativ bewertet, hat eventuell den Sinn falsch verstanden ;-)Durch den Alarm, den man einstellen kann, bekommt man sofort alles mit und kann so sehen, ob der Fisch größer als 38cm (grün) oder kleiner (rot) ist. Selbst die Tiefe, in der sich der Fisch befindet, ist zu erkennen. Die Software kann man sich kostenlos im App-Store downloaden, welche einfach und übersichtlich gestaltet wurde. Sicherlich mag der ein oder andere mehr technische Features haben wollen, doch für den Preis ist das gebotene mehr als ausreichend.Leicht negativ aufgefallen ist mir die Verbindung zum Smartphone. Diese wurde hin und wieder unterbrochen, was sich jedoch stets schnell wieder erledigt hatte. Mich hat es nicht wirklich gestört, dennoch sollte hier nachgebessert werden. Allerdings habe ich erst heute gelesen, dass es ein Update speziell für Android 7.0 Nutzer geben wird. Vielleicht sind damit die kleinen Fehler dann weg.In den USA (habe ich in Videos gesehen) wird übrigens gerne mit dem iBobber direkt geangelt – da sich unterhalb noch eine Öse befindet, kann das Vorfach einfach am iBobber dran. Er verfügt dann über den sog. „Bite Alarm“, welcher anhand einer Vibration Alarm schlägt. Mir war es jedoch zu heikel, da ich sorge hatte, den iBobber zu verlieren. Wer es jedoch mal ausprobieren möchte, gerne. Da würde ich mich über eine Info freuen. Ebenfalls lobenswert ist die Nachtnutzung. Da er so schön leuchtet (Siehe Fotos), hat man dann einen sehr guten Orientierungspunkt.Alles in allem bin ich sehr zufrieden und würde den iBobber jederzeit wieder kaufen. Schaut euch auch die Bewertungen der teureren Geräte an. Bei so viel Geld erwarte ich Top Bewertungen und selbst da gibt es genug Schlechte… Preis-Leistung ist hier einfach super. Für mich ist er eine große “Hilfe” – erst recht, wenn ich an eher unbekanntem Gewässer unterwegs bin. Gerade im Winter wird er mir sicherlich gut weiterhelfen – denn hier ist es bekanntlich schwerer, den richtigen Spot zu finden :-)An meinem ersten Testtag habe ich auch ein paar Fangfotos gemacht. Nicht die Größten, doch trotzdem hat es sehr viel Spaß gemacht ;)Für mich also eine klare Kaufempfehlung.

This is a easy to use little fish finder. I don’t cast it, but hang it off the side of my kayak. It works pretty good for the size and price. Perfect for this application, but can’t move quickly with it tied to side of kayak as it pulls out of water and will lose connection with phone. But for going along slow, works pretty slick.

Nuestra pesca es en esteros y bajos en el mar a profundidad de no más de 20 metros. Este producto es excelente a una distancia de la lancha de 20 metros. Recomendable

The iBobber was recommended to me by a friend who is fishing mad – he said the accuracy of the information would impress me and be a thoroughly enjoyable way to find the fish quicker. How could I resist!The price certainly seemed reasonable, so when it arrived a couple of days after ordering I was glad that such a high quality feeling product came out of the box. You get: iBobber fish-finder, charging dock with built in USB cable (with stable rubber legs), a carry case and instruction booklet. I’ve attached a pic as I put it on its first charge. The iBobber clicks securely into the charging dock and a blue light glows around the unit to show it’s charging. The bluetooth on my iPhone 6S connected straight away with the iBobber (after downloading the free app on the App Store) and I could see useful weather info (including pressure) and the moon cycle overlaid onto the calendar. Straight away I did think this would be useful for booking night fishing sessions – never easy to book in advance for the best dark nights.The first day out: I chose to take it with me for a days reservoir trout fishing and it certainly spiced things up! I had it in the over the side of the boat to see what depth the fish were passing at (and indeed if there were any at all . . . a few boat moves inspired by no action above the water combined with no action seen on the iPhone!). This does add some excitement when you anchor up and suddenly see fish moving under you at different depths, but the iBobber really came into its own when I tried to cast it out. I took an ‘Ugly Stick’ to do this, although you could cast it out with a variety of rod types and sizes. Firstly I cast out into an area I knew had been productive in the past. The Waterbed mapping function (you reel it back in after casting out) showed exactly how far I was from the drop off was, and beautifully mapped the bottom levels. On the second cast out (different angle) I found a large feature on the edge of the drop-off, probably a large rock or old tree root. I then cast it out again to see the fish life and the most action was deeper than I thought. A quick line change to a Di3 and lots of catching action all near the big lump on the bottom!So I did know that spot was often lucrative in the past, but do I feel smarter knowing what I do now? Did I enjoy flustering to get my flies in the water as quickly as possible when I saw the fish passing on my iPhone? Yes to both! I would definitely recommend this to other anglers, a quality product that certainly added to my success and produced several extra smiles and chuckles on the day. Now a permanent addition to my fishing bag!
