Fish finder/depth sounder
dog:
I recently bought a small open fishing boat and it needs a fish finder. I think I’d prefer one with gps if possible. Nothing too fancy, or big, just something basic that will work well for puget sound. It’s been 20 years since my last boat and things have changed quite a bit since then. Been looking a bit am I’m pretty lost with all the options. Any body with experience have advice or recommendation? Thanks

It's hard to go wrong with the Garmin products. Switching from Lowrance was the best thing I did for my electronics.

Im a Garmin guy
Easy to figure out is big reason
I just picked up a 16ft smokercraft Alaskan
Put a Garmin striker in it
For 120 bucks works great
blackpowderhunter:
the main factor in performance of your fish finder is going to be the transducer you select, so make sure it fits your fishing needs.
with that said, i also run multiple garmin units.
Super user friendly.
What is your budget?

I really like the Lowrance Hook offerings. GPS, speed, maps, down scan...They are a great unit with a ton of options for the price.
