Got the Clear for HDS5...Where to buy?how much? other options?
Finally saved enough for a decent fishfinder. I got my eye on a hds5. What is consider a great deal? I'm not in a hurry? I know from some threads that every now and then westmarine has it on sell and to price match at basspro shop or vice versa. I know I should get the model with 50/200 transducer. Is this system plug and play? Do I need to purchase additional maps? If so which one should i purchase for Southern cali ocean fishing? Sorry I got lots of questions graduated from m68c
Thanks in advance for post and pm welcome...thanks! |

I would go with Westmarine, their customer service is second to none. If you're not on their mailing list go online and sign up for it, they usually send the mailers out regarding the sales about a week before the sale start date. Also, make sure you buy the additional insurance, you can't go wrong with it.

The GPSStore.com has some great deals, I picked up my HDS5 there and a few other gps units.

Another thing to consider is how deep you'll be fishing. You can save yourself a ton of money by switching to Geico........I mean, you can save yourself some money by getting the standard 83/200 transducer instead of the 50/200.

I searched all over online and printed the page out and brought it to West Marine and they matched it. Then I bought the extended warranty with the $ I saved.
