which is the best to use and why?
Bow or console? How are you fishing?
My vote would be for DI ... given a head to head comparison.
Main reason being that the DI "picture image" is going to tell you a lot more about what's under you, than the best 2d "finger painting" image could ever hope to show.
Being able to look at your screen and see images like these :
Attachment 194794
Attachment 194795
... and know what they are the instance they appear on the screen, and not have to guess or spend a lot of time going through the learning curve of interpreting the shapes & colors of the blobs that 2d produces ... is just a no-brainer IMHO. :twocents
... cp :kewl
If moving I would say DI, but sitting still it would probably be 2D or a split screen
I fish from the bow but the screen is at the back of the boat. I have a small jon boat and can see it from anywhere. it is mounted on a ram mount and I just turn the screen to wherever I am sitting at the time.
thanks to all. the di does give a very good picture and I have trouble interpreting the 2d.
Post some of your 2d images and we will help you understand ...Quote:
