fish finder suggestions? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

i was going to get the mark4 sonar/GPS but the guy who was supposed to by my fish tank bailed on me so i dont have the funds right now...

anyways. what are the better units for kayaks out there? i want something with clear imaging to 300ft (would be cool to have something that reads to 600 or more) and has GPS that i can save points on.

also going to run two batteries. one for the FF and one for the bait tank. figure this will give me more life on both for multiple day trips and allow me to run a color unit with GPS assuming it takes more juice.

Just keep saving, dont settle for something less then what you want besides the 1st and 15th are gonna come every month, and food and electricity are over rated any way!

all that un necessary BS is automatically taken out of my check... its the gas to get to work that kills me.

thats why i asked though, i was going to be perfectly content with a Mark4 but since now im waiting again, i might as well save up a few more dollars and get something a little better.

Keep in mind BPS offers 6 month pay options. It makes getting the system you want easier. No interest is charged. I love this deal for items like this.

I'm just curious why you think you need something that reads to 600 feet?
Even 300 is just on the excessive side.

There is an expiration date for the payment plan. And I'm not sure how often they offer this plan. You may have to call and see or sign up and get email alerts.

For example:

I think all you have to do is call them and place the order over the phone.
