The fishfinder ... that's certainly one I hadn't thought of.  

Combine that with yesterday's question about "accordion sounds" and 
perhaps you could take a modern radio and play a rousing Polka while 
finding the best place to cast your line in anticipation of a fine fish dinner 
..

I tried the accordion thing .. put a strap on my Orion, hung it around my 
neck, positioned it just so with my right finger tips able to reach all of the 
buttons.  When I squeezed the rig, however, nothing much happened.  I 
must not have the technique down quite right .. maybe I need to blow into 
it somewhere, too  ...  :-)
