a few guys i fished with last winter bought one and seemed to workout well for them, i just pulled one out of the bargin cave at cabellas for 130, had to get a new charger for it but other than that it seems to work fine.
The showdown has that problem fixed .... quit bringing up old news.... and stay on subject
you guys are funny! is this fishfinder a flasher type?
Neptune, Thanks for the video link. I knew I was buying that for a reason.
Ive never fished with one personally but i will chime in on what Skipper said. How are you able to tell fish mood and responsiveness to your presentation with the showdown? Fish size, proximity to your hole, etc are all things that i dont think the showdown would do a good job of showing you when comparing it to a flasher. Just my two cents...
LOL, He asked about the unit and got an answer which was " on subject" , I wouldnt call it old news though since they still have interference problems, just not as bad as they were.
I bought one of these last year and it worked great for me. It is my first fish finder for ice applications and I guess I don't have any negative comments. My brother will probably be buried with his Vexilar and even he was impressed by how it worked. It is very easy to use after a little bit of time get the sensitivity dialed in, but it helped catch fish and that's what is important.
At 1000 watts of power the showdown should really shine for deep dwelling creatures like lake trout.It looks like it operates just like the a-scope feature on your high end open water fishfinders like furuno,raymarine,sitex etc.It's just too bad they didn't make it color,I bet it's not far away.
