fish finders

[Jigging15]

Finally got another boat bought. Wanting to upgrade fish finder at the bow. Had looked at Lowrance 102 C when had last boat. What is the latest and greatest unit and or what are you guys using.

If money is no object, check out the Humminbird side imaging depth finders. I think they are only available with GPS also.

Are you wanting the unit equipped with gps?

[Jigging15]

I wish money was no object. But I would like to stay around $400 to $600. Gps not a must have. I mainly fish Truman and i'm getting to know my way around pretty good.

A gps is is not only good for navigation it is good for the millions of object under the water that you need to return to.

I have not used one with gps before. It just seemed to me like a lot of stuff to deal with while trying to fish. I have the mapsource system on my computer still from when I had my handheld gps. I just did not use it like I thought I would. I still use the mapping system to scout out new areas from home. It has definatly gave me something to do with the weather we have had.

I have a hand held gps and went out yesterday to see how close it would get me to the spot and it took me right over it I was amazed first time I ever really messed with it but I am also trying to deside on a depth finder I am leaning towards an eagle or lowrance havent made up my mind. I would hate to spend all money and than not be happy.

Same here thats why I posted . That way I can find out what others use and like or dislike. I was leaning towards a 102c. I have seen some demo's on the color units and they are pretty impressive.

I went to color units after mine were stolen and the detail is awesome compared to black and white.If possible i would get the color unit.

Check out www.jandhproducts.com they have some great deals,the 102c looks like a very good unit,i'd say you would be happy with it.My self if i were to buy a new unit i think it would be the Humminbird 787 or even better the 797 if i could afford it.
