Description

The Garmin GT8HW-IF is purpose-built for ice fishing, pairing high-wide CHIRP traditional sonar with the wide beam angles that ice anglers value. The broad coverage area helps you spot fish moving in and out of the cone, while the high-band 145 to 230 kHz frequency range keeps fish arches crisp and bottom definition clear.

Running 250 W and reading to 244 m (800 ft.) in freshwater, the GT8HW-IF connects to a compatible Garmin ice-fishing fishfinder through a 4-pin connector and a short 2.4 m (8 ft.) cable suited to portable use on the ice.
