Thread: Lowrance X96 or Humminbird 565?

I am in the market for a new fishfinder. I have narrowed it down to the X96 or Humminbirds 565??. Does anyone have any comments or advice on these units or on any other unit?? Would love all the help I can get..

thanks

Had a 565 and I like it alot. It's a good unit for the money. I have read some posts by other guys that have owned the x96 and they like them as well. I haven't used the X96 so I can't personally comment on it.

How much did you find the 565 for?

Here is a link from J&H for the 565 and X96. I just ordered a Humminbird 787c from them.

I got my 565 on sale at BPS for 150. Havent used it yet

I have the X-96. Excellent unit for the money.

I would take a Lowrance over a HB any day. But that's just my opinion.
