Thanks for nothing

Jimbo

they are asking legit how much you want to spend for 1 or 2 units... there is a lot of varience between types/costs/fetures of units

Yes it would be like " I want to buy a car. " We have no idea where to begin. What is CRAZY for you may be a beginning price for others. This is one of the most helpful sites on the web. But you need to supply a more definite question with as much info as you can.

An example question might go " what the best two fishfinders could I install on my boat for under a 1000.00. I fish mainly for walleye and sauger. My boat is a XXX and is XX footer.

Now guys have a little ammunition to work with.

I would like to help but my knowledge is ridiculously limited. Find a tackle shop around your area, a lot of them have ff out on display and you can go and play with them. Once you do that and check out the prices and kinda get a mindset of what you want then ask these guys about the specific ones you are looking at. From what I have read humminbird and lowrance run a pretty close race, it is personal preference. I have a inexpensive humminbird that came from wal-mart that my wife bought me like 5 yrs ago. It shows me how deep and the water temp and kinda what Im over. I would love to upgrade but the check book won't allow it. You can get a wealth of knowledge from folks on here, they just need specifics. Hope I helped some. If I could go shopping tomorrow this is how I would go about it.

Get a couple middle of the road Humminbird products.

Now if you really want what I think the best sonar is, disreguarding GPS?

Go crazy and get a couple Vexilar Edge IIIs.

Lowrance someday, without bugs, and with customer service will be a good choice too.
