I'm not sure that I'm really interested in SI at this point. Maybe down the road, but right now I'd just like a good DI unit with GPS. Like I said, this is all very new to me. My crappie fishing methods prior to now would be what might call "primitive".


  • See tree
  • Tie up to tree
  • Waste an hour or more not catching fish on said tree
  • Rinse/Repeat


It wasn't quite that bad. I had a cheap FF that I used to look for certain depth/structure, but I wasn't very diligent in my approach.
