Are you saying that if you had the extra money to get better electronics, you wouldn't upgrade? No different than upgrading your boat or your motor, if youre a tournament fisher and guys with better boats and motors are beating you to the spots you prefished all week. Most crappie guys upgrade because they can, not because they have too. Lots of us can catch fish in a pothole if somebody tells us which ones are holding fish. I just don't get why people knock the ones that upgrade. Not everybody wants to do stuff the old fashioned way. Why use a hand drill when you can use a battery operated drill?
