I am starting this thread because I am about to buy a new fishfinder and I want to kknow what kind if any all of you are using. Also are you pleased with what you have and which one would you buy if you were to buy a new one.
I have an Eagle 480 cost about $200. It's monocolor not much power and does a fair job on structure but not real good on fish echos. I a thinking of buying a Lowrance HD 5. It has a gps and a built in map system. It's digital and has much more power. I would like to hear from so other fishermen especialy those who fish bigger lake.
I have heard that there have been a few problems with the new Lowrance HD 5. Does anyone own one?
