Thread: Lowrance Hook-7

I have a hook 7 at the TM and an elite 7 TI on the dash. I've had them for 7 months and just getting to really understand what I'm seeing. They both work well for the way I fish. Primarily trolling cranks.

Following this thread. I picked up the hook 7 on Black Friday for a heck of a deal. I was looking at the 5 but this was actually cheaper and came with the map software and a sun cover. Bonus! I won a fun little recurve as part of their Black Friday stuff. Can't beat deals and free stuff.

Good to hear that both of you have one. I just went to Academy and got one also. I found a deal with them on the internet for just a couple of days. The store wasn't aware of it but they honored the printout that I brought in. Glad that I did. Mine had the map soft ware, not sure about the cover until I open it up.

I like mine. Santa brought it last year. A learning curve for sure

Gcromer when u open it up, and get the map card out of its little case, and u open up the door on the graph to insert the card, that map card will be too big, there is another map card inside of the 1 that's too big. Have I confused u yet, my dad just installed his today and went to put the card in and was way too big,,called cabellas and guy said use ur finger nail and u can open it up and get to the right card, looked be same card out of his elite 5.

It is a microchip. Why they would go to such a small chip when you might be changing it on the water with cold hands is beyond me. They will also blow out if you leave one accidentally on the deck.

HD3, thanks, I'll watch for that. I've got to find a Lowrance 10978-001mount so that I can put that skimmer on my trolling motor. I'll shop around here in town before I order one off line. Since that's where fish, I want to see that information. I'm leaving my other DF on the console, which I use mostly while running from point to point.

Ray, with it being small, I'll drop it for sure.

The outfit that makes the pop up mount I have on my transom also makes a good TM mount for transducers. Transducer Shield and Saver | See More Fish, Catch More Fish
