Fly the Team Iceshanty Flag! Iceshanty Proshop
Took the FLX28 out with my LX5, Troller and Lowrance Elite 3x and of all units I was the least impressed with the FLX.The ProView Ducer shows every mark as 3/4 of an inch on 0 gain in 16fow. I just don't get the appeal, at all and the auto depth is super flaky.It made me realize I need a graph, I'll probably swap out the Elite 3x Head for an Elite 4 GPS. Just easier to see changes in bottom vs a flasher.
I can't knock Marcum I have personally never used one.I did have a Lowrance Elite 4 just got rid of it a couple of weeks ago.I didn't like the graph at all.I know a lot of guys love them .I did the settings as other suggested had ping speed turned all the way up to me it seamed like it was in slow motion.I do however miss the all in one gps and graph aspect.You say you don't like the thick lines on the flx well I really didn't like the long marks on the Lowrance.Like you say do each his own.
