My redneck pond fishing rig!! Any ideas on how to attach a transducer to this thing? BTW the rod holder sits in the middle so I will put my sonar there.

Google search Kayak/Canoe transducer mounts, the results may give you some ideas. I'd probably try heating and bending a 3/4 heavy PVC pipe into a "J" to hang over the side.

TM mount? If no TM get a busted one and use the mechanism. Or make one as PM said.

Scotty makes some glue on mounts that fit all the scotty accessories.

From there you can get all kinds of accessories including a transducer mount.

I hope this helps you.
Enjoying retirement in the great Pacific Northwest.  I've turned into a fair weather angler.  Why do it today when I can do it tomorrow?

I recently video logged my sonar install in my kayak. Might give you some ideas on how to go about it:

That console/rod holder will make a great place to mount the head unit and hold the battery.
