Real-Time Depth, Temperature, and Speed Data — Right at Your Downrigger
The Scotty Seeker™ 5000 Complete System is a radical advancement in downrigger trolling technology, co-developed with Airmar to give anglers precise, real-time water condition data directly at the probe — not estimated from the surface. True depth measurement, rapid-response temperature sensing, and a high-performance paddle wheel for unmatched low-speed speed accuracy combine to give you the information you need to find and stay in the strike zone.
The system connects wirelessly via Bluetooth and ethernet to iOS, Android, and most major MFDs, with a data refresh rate of every 5 seconds in normal mode or every half-second in thermocline mode for pinpoint thermocline detection. Fast wireless charging delivers approximately 40 hours of battery life per charge, and the system supports up to 4 probes simultaneously for multi-downrigger setups.

Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: The Scotty Seeker™ is the definitive upgrade for serious trollers who want to stop guessing and start fishing the data. The true-depth probe measurement eliminates the inaccuracy of surface-based depth estimation, and the half-second thermocline refresh rate lets you identify and lock onto temperature breaks with precision that surface units simply can’t match. It’s particularly valuable for salmon and lake trout fishing where thermocline location is the difference between a full box and an empty one. The multi-probe support makes it ideal for boats running two or more downriggers at different depths simultaneously.
