Thread: Choosing transducer

thanks for all the great insight. guess im on my own

Be patient ...

The Lowrance guys don't check in as often as I do ...and I just know generalities of the Lowrance product line ...

I will mention for general shallow water fishing in <100ft ... You will get the most benefit from a 83kHz/200kHz 2d xducer ...But I don't know the part number for that ...

I think the HST-WSBL( which is a 83/200htz transducer is what you will need. Then your hds 5x will show split screen 83 and 200 at the same timwe. I had a HDS 7 and that is how it was used. that is all that can be seen unless you go the LSS2 route. This will also give water temperature....Good Luck....crappie1133
