Currently saving up for a Fish finder for the yak and I've selected 2 which i'm fairly keen on. Would like know what people thoughts are the 2 models suggested.
I fish mainly rivers and pretty soon will be heading to the Big W every chance i get, well hopefully.
cheers Brad.

I would suggest that you go to a Humminbird. I've never found a Garmin sounder that can compete with a humminbird.
Nativeman:
I have had all sorts of sounders over the years, I'm still into Humminbird in a big way but I bought an Echo 300 recently for one of my kayaks and I have to say for the money it is pretty good. Paid low 200's, it has reasonable pixel count, Color Screen, Dual Beam, the list goes on...The screen is small but hey its only 200 bucks, right.
Don't think I would use it for hunting down Bass in Wivenhoe as I use the Bird for that but it seems to be an ok sounder...
Cheers

You need pretty good sounder for finding bass in deep water at wivenhoe. The lower pixel count models,cannot show fish properly.
