In my humble opinion....

......i would disagree with getting the ff first, just due to my own experiences. First off, the main reason for a ff is finding bait....ok, well before I got a sonar I never had a problem finding bait. A ff makes it easier but its not hard to find w/o one. Now you have a ff for finding bait but now where you gonna put it? Bait tubes work but you are already paddling a very slow yak and the extra drag will make it worse. Plus if you fish with buddies that have ff's on thier yaks then you know where the structure is. You know what sucks? Paddling up to your buddy every 10 minutes because you are sharing a bait tank. These guys have alot of experience and give great advice, but personally, for my style of fishing a fishfinder is a luxury and a bait tank is a necesity
