Well I bought used HB 797, and can honestly say it has increased my confidence by 1000! Considering I fish mainly at night. After marking every stump, shallow spot etc. I now cruise at night as I would during the day!. But I still run a spotlight watching for floaters.
Bro GPS IS THE WAY TO GO!
I mark every brush pile, log, ledge I find! Like rnvinc above I had hundreds of waypoints, tracks, and markers!




Find a unit you can afford, save up the cash, Than save some more! buy the next larger screen size you can!
Its all about visibility! A GPS dont mean sheit if you cant see whats on the display!
haha. do you have to buy maps for the lakes? if i was to fish rend mostly would i have to buy that map or would it just know i was at rend?
