Use a fish finder sideways from shore?
#6
Without a good bottom to get a signal from it can be tough for a regular finder to get setup and working properly. If it gets a signal back it will display the first one that shows up first from the shortest distance and display it as the bottom. With holding the transducer in you hand it will allow it to move around and get many different signals bouncing back making it harder for the unit figure out what it is seeing.

One of the fishin buddies with the sidefinder option would do what you are looking for but would be kind of a pain to pack around and set up and check at each spot. Also it may not show fish that are holding tight to cover. But if you are just looking for fish in the open water my fishin buddy 120 has worked rather well for me over the last couple of months.
