Help w/ Lowrance - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

TCS · 12-09-2011, 08:43 PM

I have an HDS 5 Nautic Insight. I think the charts would be fine if it didn't have that big blank spot over LJ. Ended up getting a deal on a Fish & Chip. Greg is right that the fish $ chip has way more detail than the Nautic Insight charts. I would get the base model with GPS and get the Fish & Chip.

At the risk of a thread jack.... I have a couple of Lowrance Qs of my own...
Are you guys using noise reduction out at LJ?
What % colorline?
Auto sensitivity?
Other settings that matter?

Thanks, Tom
