Lowrance X 67 vs. Showdown

[CBW]

I am looking to purchase a new fish finder for Ice fishing. Dose anyone have any info on the Lowrance X 67? I have read some good reviews about the showdown but I like how the Lowrance gives you the best of both worlds with the flasher and graph displays all in one unit.

The X67, and probably all Lowrance graphs, have a feature called FasTrack. It is basically what the Showdown is using. Except the Showdown makes it about an inch and a half to two inches wide. The FasTrack is only about a quarter of an inch wide, but is the same information. Plus there is the record of what has happened in the last 10 or 15 seconds on a graph, which the Showdown doesn't have.

I know nothing about the Showdown but I purchased the x67 this year and have had it out 3 times this past week or so. I love it so far. Definetely increased my catch rate and it is a blast to watch the graph. I can see my lures and the fish coming to get them. Has made my trips on the ice a whole lot more fun.

Have had a X67 for 5 years. Great little unit and it can be used in the summer on your boat too. Have used Showdowns - a good unit but my choice would be the x67

Yes, I forgot to mention that part of the reason I went with the x67 was to use it on the Red Leaker in the summer. Bang for the buck if you will....
