Lowrance Elite5 vs Elite5DSI - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

RJClark · 05-22-2013, 06:06 PM

Good afternoon everyone. Newbie to kayak fishing, I am trying to outfit my Hobie Adventure yak for some so cal costal action. I'm looking for some advice about ff/GPS. I am leaning towards the Lowrance Elite5 because of its 1000 foot depth capacity, however I also like the DSI for hoop netting but it's capacity of only 250 feet seems shallow. So do I need a ff that can go deeper than 250 feet for fishing off so cal? Thanks everyone.
