    Re: New Electronics

    I just had a thought and figured it dont hurt to ask, so I will ask. If any body that has a Humminbird DI or SI Unit and will be around Ceder Creek some time, I would love to see what I am thinking about spend $$$$$$ on. Just want to see what it really can do, and is it something I really need. I know I can go to a Fishin Store and see the demo, but real life info would be a lot better. i want to see the detail of the 5 inch screen or do I just need to wait till I get a second job and get the bigger unit. Them things cost way to much money. So if any body is going to be around Herrington or Cedar sometime and dont care to take someone out for little while please give me yell.

    thanks

    If you fish the same lake most of the time don't waste your money on either. A good quality regular fish finder will tell you everything you need to know in order to catch fish. You just have to learn how to interrupt what you are seeing. We have one on our Skeeter and you can tell what is wood or rock, how big it is and what it looks like. You can also tell hard bottom from soft bottom and the thermocline will stick out like a sore thumb. I know the pictures of sticks and old bridges look pretty in the ads but they are not really necessary to catch fish. If you fish a lot of tourneys it may be different but for everyday fishing the regular fishfinders will serve you just fine.
