I was looking at this site and they have some nice stuff for mounting your FF and the transducer over the side of the kayak. And it could be stored during a surf launch. Having the transducer in the water will give you a better reading on your FF and it is easy to move it to another Kayak.

I spent ALOT of time pondering mounting locations. I eventually went for the right side mount. I'm right handed and I'm always messing with the settings. This left the left side for the anchor trolley setup. In the picture you can see the general setup plus the wet transducer mount in the center hatch. btw, that's a Humminbird 597CI DI

I had mine located up front using the sailing mast hole. Really easy to take on and off. no extra holes in your boat and in an outback easy to slide forward to make adjustments on it. Thats where Darkhorse has his located, but what does he know about Kayak fishing?
