Help with choosing a HB unit for bow.
Howdy !
I need help with choosing a Humminbird unit for the front of the boat. I have a 3 year old HB 900 series, that I switch from bow to stern as needed, (same transducer mounted on transom) and I would like to mount a smaller system dedicated for bow use, and leave the 900 in the back. I would like to spend around $500 ish, or less if possible.
The main use of the new unit would primarily for fishing brush piles, and structure, as right now everything I see is 16 feet behind me because of the transducer position.
My home lake is about 140 acres, fairly clear, with a max depth of around 40 feet.
My questions are as follows :
Does SI and DI work (well) on a trolling motor ?
What about a Da Ducer or other mounting systems ?
Do I really need CHIRP, MEGA, or LIVE Scope ? (I really don't even know anything about these setups)
Thank you in advance for your replies.
