Enjoying the Last Few Weekends of Summer - Fishing on the Lake!

My husband and I try to make the most out of every single moment... making memories with our children that will last a lifetime is at the top of our priority list. Always!  Even though summer vacation is over and the kids are back in school, we still have a few weekends to enjoy one of our favorite activities before we have to winterize the boat... fishing on the lake!
 
I was recently given the opportunity to go on a little Rakuten.com Shopping spree.  If you’re not familiar with Rakuten.com Shopping, they’re a leading online retailer that offer a huge range of products, including; clothing, gadgets, health and beauty, toys & baby and much more. Many of the products on the site can be delivered in as little as 1 – 2 days and numerous products offer free shipping.
As I was looking around on the Rakuten shopping site, I was amazed at their variety, selection, and low prices!  They had everything from computers and electronics, shoes and clothing, books and wine, camping and bbq supplies, and so much more.  How was I possibly going to choose just one or two items?  

Then I had an idea! I was going to look for something that we could enjoy each and every single time we went fishing... something that the kids and my husband had mentioned wanting over the summer - a portable fish finder!

I was in love with the price, and even more impressed with how quickly it arrived at our door.  The portable fish finder that I ordered was a whopping 67% off and was going to be the perfect tool for our boat.  

Product Features and Technical Details Features: 


1. Detect and display grass, short & tall weeds, sand, and rocks on seabed 
2. Get the approximate location of fish and the depth of water 
3. Round transducer sensor with 7.5 m cable, 45-degree beam angle 
4. With fish depth scale and audible fish alarm 
5. User selectable meter or feet readings

The portable fish finder was easy to use, so easy that it has become my 9-year-old daughter's favorite new "toy" while we are out enjoying a day on the lake.  Even when we aren't fishing, she's telling us if there are fish under the boat!

Does our new fish finder work?  Well, the kids sure think it does...
 
Rakuten.com Shopping also has a great rewards program called Super Points. Super Points are the site’s rewards program that help you to reward yourself every time you purchase from the site. You can save your points up to get the things you want for free or you can pay for part of your order with points to get a discount. You’ll earn 1 point per every dollar spent, that's like getting cash back on every purchase!
 
Be sure to check out Rakuten.com Shopping for your next online purchase.  You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter

Do you like to fish?
