Since bream fishing has became a large part of what I do which side image unit would best serve finding beds ? I have used a helix-5 and may opt for a 7 inch . Any others that I should be looking at ?I typically crappie the same places (mainly brush piles) after the spawn so my elite 5 does OK for confirming locations . This unit will go on back to replace a lowrance elite 3 . Attachment 283793
Take a hard look at the Helix 10 si that BBG has on sale, its the first gen Helix just like my 12 at one heck of a price, you won't regret it.

It's more than worth the money. It may seem like a lot but after using it for awhile you will wonder why you didn't get it sooner.
I bought a 7 g2n si gps used it three trips and decided I'm upgrading to a 10 at console
Bigger the better but I will have a mint 899 for sale with 35 hrs

At least go with a helix 9 or bigger. The 9,10 and 12 are the same strength. The 7 is nowhere as detailed as the 9 and up. Ask me how I know. My 12 shows brim beds a whole lot better than the 7.

I think that the biggest thing to consider in any sonar is the screen size get the biggest you can afford no matter what brand. I have the 7" screen and it can sometimes be really hard to see everything that I would like to see. Here is a picture of fish beds I seen on my old Humminbird 899 HD Si sonar.
