Trying to refigure the whole set up. I won't be able to spend much, maybe $500 total.
Right now I have an Eagle brand something on the console, transducer in back. Then a Lowrance 85 up front with the transducer on the TM.

I don't feel like this is doing me any good.
I have a nice handheld GPS that I have been using to mark things.

I'd like to feel like I am actually getting some help on what's under the water. I wish I could go big, but I just can't fish enough to justify it right now.

Look at the lite 7X HDI. Little more than $500 but you get sonar and downscan. You have a GOPS that will work, sonar that works, this will give you the downscan and little better sonar.

As more funds available put this unit up front and look at a HDS with GPS and Structure Scan.
