From what I remember most of the transducers intended for a transom mount now will work fine as a shoot through. Just purchase their epoxy.
Read up on some of the stuff, ideally you want to contact the bottom as flat as possible, with no voids and just a little forward to get away from engine noise. Usually you can adjust the sensitivity to overcome any slight problems.
