I've been using a huminbird that was 69 dollars at Walmart for about four years and i've caught a lot of fish with it. I've tried 2 more expensive color units with side find and gps. I have ended up returning both of them. They didn't find anymore fish they took up all my time trying to make them work properly. I didn't like spending my fishing time looking at a computer. Although for the type of fishing I do a GPS can be handy. I also didn't like my ff costing more then my motor. The day after I took back the latest one. I was at Walmart and as usual walked through the fishing isle and there it was for 79 dollar marked down from 199 a lorance mark 4 hdi. (Carma i guess) All the basics that I like 83 and 200 hz transducer for standard sonar 120 degree veiw and a GPS. It's not color, but that's not important to me. I think what I'm saying is, figure out the basics that you need and forget about that other stuff its just something to take your time up while you could be fishing. We will see how it works out, I haven't had it out yet. The unit can be had for 150 or less on line, I just couldn't pass it up for 79.
