Flasher questions
« on: Dec 25, 2013, 04:22 PM »
Alright guys. I know this has probably been brought up multiple times but I thought I would ask. I am looking at getting a new flasher in a week or two and torn between brands. I had a fl20 last year and think if I went back to a vex I would go with a fl20. However I was looking into humminbirds and you seem to get a lot more for your money. They also have the digital depth reading on the screen. What is everyone's personal opinions on flasher, what's the best and why? Thanks guys

I prefer the advantages of the Marcum digitals, quiet and able to customize the screen to your liking and prefer the target sepereration of the Marcums over the others....Plus they are made in Minnesota, not just assembled there....

I upgraded from my FL18 to a Marcum LX7.  WOW is all I got for it, I like being able to fine tune it to my liking.  I was fishing perch last weekend and could tweek it so I would be able to see on the screen if my minnow head got snatched!

On the other hand I did buy the new digital depth/battery gauge attachment for my FL18, my wife or daughter uses it when they tag along.
