The 898 from Humminbird is great. If you ever get up this way I will gladly take you with me and you can look at the different things one can find and see.

#1 Definetely worth the money. It'll improve your fishing tremendously.
#2 I have a HB 898 si. It's great, but if I had to do it over again, I'd keep saving and buy one of the bigger screens.
#3 For me, the SI is for finding structure and cover. You'll find dozens of places to fish the first day you use it (I found 148, new to me, brushpiles in 1 day on a lake I had fished for years). You will learn to see schools of fish fairly quickly and identifying individual fish will come as well. There is a lot to be said for adjusting the unit to see the fish. You'll learn, it just takes turning on the unit and playing with it. You can freeze the screen and then make adjustments to the unit. This technique lets you see how each adjustment changes what you see. You can also use the switch fire mode as a regular fish finder. One thing that helped me was to print out the manual (it comes on a cd) and carry it to the lake.

I have two Humminbird SI fish finders. I can tell you that if you are "SERIOUS" about fishing, you should own at least one. There are a lot of videos on YouTube to teach you how to read and use them.
Gotta go, fish on!
