Hello and thanks for taking time to read. I recently purchased my first boat and need some advice on fish finders. I like to fish for blue cats and prefer to catch shad for bait. I have a 19 foot aluminum hulled ski boat, if relevant. I don't have experience with fish-finders, so the simpler the better (I am comfortable with high tech electronics in general)
[ol][li]What are some quality fish-finders that won't break the bank? (don't want to spend more than 500 in any case, would like to stay lower)
[/li][li]What style/type of transducer should I buy? (Or do fish-finders usually come with a good one?) - how many degrees, etc
[/li][li]What features are "must haves"? [/li][li]How many watts for fresh water lakes do you need?
[/li][/ol] Thanks Again,
MJ
