I would say recruit first. You already have a flasher. Switching to a graph isn't going to massively change how you fish. On the other hand, moving from a 3 person hub to a one man flip can help change you from sitNfish to runNgun.

I would get the recruit if i were you, the flasher you have now is good enough.

thanks for all the responses! but now i have a little problem. I have a 2 door honda civic and the hut will not fit in the truck so i would need to buy a roof rack which in the end after everything it would be cheaper to buy the lowrance elite 5 ice machine.

Do u have a good ice suit? You could look for a used one man shack on Craigslist. That is if you need to fish in a shack.
