    Default Help me choose my electronics arsenal!


    Good Afternoon to all -

    I'm a Minnesota resident and fish primarily walleye and crappie. In general, target depth for both species is 10-25ft.

    I recently found Reelfoot Lake and immensely enjoy spider rigging coupled with the humminbird 360. It's going to be an annual trip for myself and I'd like to outfit my rig not only for this type of fishing, but perhaps for the above species in my home state.

    Here's what I've been looking at:

    Helix 10 with humminbird 360, bow mount. With that said, do I want the si or di? Would I be ok to use the 360 with a stern mount, but have electronics in the bow? I don't believe they have an attachment for my trolling motor - what do you recommend?


    I'll take any and all input - I'm a novice to the 360 and it's supporting devices.

    Thanks,

    Walleye

    HELIX MEGA SI units and HELIX MEGA DI units have the same DI technology ...

    HELIX MEGA SI would give you an extra tool (MEGA SI) at the front ...
    -----

    HB Bow 360 is about $500 cheaper than the transom 360 because transom 360 has a deploy system ... Both perform similar ...

    There are after market mounts for HB Bow 360 on electric steer trolling motors ...

    Cornfieldcrappiegear has many models ...

    Being a novice to new technology from the last 7 years, I appreciate the insight. Sounds like you're saying that the SI has both features, which I would like.

    Would I be able to run the 360 with just the Di unit and get both Si and Di capabilities?

    As far as 360 bow mounts go, I'm liking da'ducer.

    Correct MEGA SI units also have MEGA DI ...

    Correct 360 will work with DI units ...

    Correct 360 can provide SI views in DI units ...
