Just to throw another curve ball at people considering units.

Don't write off the Garmin units. Biggest downside to them is that they refuse to get along with Navionics although Garmin does have the same mapping data currently on their lake vu units(won't have same quality once Navionics is updated by users though). Chirp, side imaging is all comparable to the other brands and one thing Garmin has that nothing else does is Panoptix which is real time forward or downward facing sonar. Pretty neat and if they can refine the technology further will be a game changer imo(already is in some regards).

Pretty soon the fish aren't going to be able to hide anywhere the way these units are improving each year.

I really wanted to upgrade this year but it doesn't look like it is going to happen due to other fishing financial decisions lol.
