Just a basic HB 152, for depth and water temp, always used a hand held GPS for speed and a Nazionics app on my phone for a map. As far as techniques, I do it all, spider rig, single pole, pull cranks, pitch jigs under docks, doesn’t matter. Just depends on the time of the year. I fish the north MS lakes the majority of the time. Time to break down and buy a unit to do it all and make it a bit easier.
