Cewlbeanz kosmo....

I had figured you were going to be one of the 1st to get the 360..

i not saying that everyone ,would feel the same way as me after using the 360 but for me, why would i want to go over structure with di to look then have to go back. then if i wanted to fish vertical all i could see is a blob. with 360 i never have to go over the structure while sitting still i can watch fish enter the structure and leave and just cast to them. if i want to fish vertical i can sit my boat strait over the top of structure and continue to see the individual limbs and see fish enter the structure and leave. "DUH"

I agree it's new technology, but like others mentioned, the price will keep a lot of us away. I think SI/DI will still dominate for quite awhile. A lot of people still don't have SI/DI..lol, including myself. I have plans for them; I just haven't gotten them yet.

I don't understand "DUH", however if you have a need for to see fish, then that is the gadget for you. Me, well I don't care if I see the fish or not, that is what a 50 cent bobber is for.


edit......
I forgot to mention the 5.00 buoy marker.

so far not so much I like the 360. but I am glad your using it and I hope you get lots of use out of it, yep times they are a changin. big time.
