C-Map Genesis Live on the HDS allows you download maps that aren’t available on Navionics. This is not the end-all for recreational anglers. However, it can be a good option if your lifestyle includes frequent travel to fish.
The HDS model has both ClearVu and SideVu imaging. This dual-beam technology allows for higher resolution and greater clarity. This screen has 6-fold splitscreen capabilities and a wireless connectivity. Bluetooth and smartphone connectivity are built-in. Deeper Smart Sonar Pro also scans up 300 feet. It is also capable of mapping an area from the shore or boat, and it even works on ice.
Mega+ down imaging and side imaging are available. This is basically saying that you can see more detail than most fish finders. 360-degree imaging is the best sonar feature. This unit can provide you with a 360-degree view from up to 125 feet away from your boat.
A fish finder's screen size doesn’t have to dictate the choice of a device. I believe that a smaller screen is better for people who fish from small boats or kayaks. It is simpler to mount, operate and more durable than large equipment with 12-inch screens.
GPS fishfinder combinations offer many benefits. The GPS fishfinder combo's map feature lets you plot areas in which you could catch fish. You can even save the places you've mapped out. Fish finder also allows you to save your fishing spots for later use. To help you navigate between places, the fishfinder also provides a map. With the depth gauge you can create waypoints.
Overall, it's a budget-friendly model. This model is essentially a reduced version of the more expensive Garmin fishfinders, for those who have a limited budget. The weekend fisherman looking to learn more about fish tech will still love this model.
What is a GPS combination fishfinder combo? GPS combos combine a GPS and fish finder into one device. You can choose from sizes 7 to 16, and they have color screens and integrated GPS antennas. Some fishfinders also feature internal sonar such as side imaging and CHIRP. Some are even networkable. Popular brands include Lowrance, Simrad, and Garmin.
