I have owned HB, Lowrance & Garmin

[Don G]

I remember the good times I had watching fish on 2D that would come up and hit my jig. This was done while still fishing over brush.

I then purchased a HB 898 because of all the hype about DI/SI. I also enjoyed the fellowship and training that Cane Pole gave me on this unit. I then started scanning & looking.

After all the clearer picture hype, I bought a Lowrance HDS. Now I have a HB at the console & a Lowrance at the trolling motor.

As for me, I enjoyed the 2D better than the white specks on SI.

After spending several dollars on the updates I have found that I don't have as much fun as I did fishing over brush.

So now I am anxiously awaiting for the new Garmin 50s to reach the market with the new 10 hz/ sec renewal rate on GPS.

Like I said, I like 2D & would put the Garmin 550c up against HB & Lowrance for clear pictures.

Now this old man will be able sit over brush and once again enjoy watching the fish come & go looking at my jig.
