Lowrance PTI-WSU 200kHz Portable Mount Ice Fishing Transducer

Discover Crystal-Clear Underwater Views During Your Ice Fishing Adventures

Imagine drilling a hole in the ice, dropping your line, and instantly seeing fish cruising below with pinpoint accuracy. That's the edge you get with this specialized transducer designed for the harsh world of ice fishing. Tailored for portable setups, it delivers reliable 200 kHz sonar signals through a focused 20-degree beam, perfect for scanning tight spots under thick ice without the clutter of wider angles.

Unlike bulkier fixed-mount options, this transducer shines in mobility. It mounts easily on your portable shelter or directly through the ice hole, letting you relocate quickly as fish move. Anglers swear by its sensitivity in cold water, picking up subtle jig movements and bottom structure that can make or break a day on the hard water.

Engineered for Tough Ice Conditions

• High-Frequency Precision: Operating at 200 kHz, it excels in shallow to mid-depths typical of ice fishing lakes, offering sharp separation between fish, bait, and weeds.
• Narrow Beam Focus: The 20-degree cone cuts through ice noise, concentrating energy for detailed returns right where your bait hits the water.
• Portable Design: Lightweight and easy to handle, it includes a generous power cable ready for quick connections in the field.
• Rugged Build: Built to withstand freezing temps and rough handling, ensuring consistent performance trip after trip.

Pro tip: Pair it with your existing setup for enhanced flasher-style displays, where every flash reveals potential hooksets. Its compatibility extends to select Lowrance units, making it a seamless upgrade for serious ice anglers chasing walleye, perch, or crappie.

Maximize Your Catch with Smart Setup and Techniques

Getting started is straightforward—simply secure the transducer pucks to your ice auger hole or portable mount, route the cable safely away from traffic, and power up. For best results, keep the face perpendicular to the ice bottom to avoid signal distortion from angles.

During active fishing, experiment with gain settings to highlight suspended fish schools. In murky under-ice conditions, the narrow beam helps isolate targets, reducing false reads from thermoclines or debris. Many veterans combine it with glow jigs, watching the sonar mark dance as fish investigate.

Maintenance is minimal: Rinse with fresh water after each use to prevent mineral buildup, and store dry to avoid freeze damage. With proper care, it delivers seasons of dependable service.

Why Ice Anglers Choose This Transducer Over Others

In a sea of generic sonar options, this one stands out for its ice-specific tuning. Broader beams flood the screen with noise in confined holes, while lower frequencies lose detail in shallows. Here, the 200 kHz sweet spot balances depth penetration with resolution, giving you the confidence to set the hook.

It's not just about specs—it's about real-world reliability when temps plummet and fish get finicky. Whether you're solo in a flip-over shelter or running a multi-hole spread, this transducer keeps you ahead of the bite.
