Lots of stuff on the internet about downscan vs sidescan. The consensus is that you should save your money and just do downscan if you fish directly under the boat, fish in very deep water, or are on a tight budget. Also if you are fishing a specific area repeatedly, then you'll probably learn the bottom with just bottom scan. I've also noticed that the more you pay, the better the quality of the image. So getting the lowest priced sidescan may not necessarily give you a great image.
That was my rationale for buying a Lowrence Hook 7. But somewhere in the back of my head, I wonder if I should have gone with the elite series.
I have a 2016 TI Lowrance ready. I am shopping for a fish finder with chirp, down scan and chartplotter. The Garmin echomap chirp 53cv was at the top of my list. Come to find out the transducer is too large for the space provided on the TI. I will be on the lakes of the Adirondacks most of the time. Some times I bring it to Clinton CT and on the sound.
Any recommendations?
