Well I've been on a search for a long time for a new fish finder. I've looked at everything from lowrance to dragonfly and Hbirds. I really don't care to spend more then $400. Anything I get will be an improvement I'm tired of looking at different size cookie cutter fish on my finder. I have a 15% off code at Austin kayaks and was looking at this one.

I also found this on amazon

If you run a Hbirds Helix 5 or Garmin echo 551dv I'd like to hear your thoughts on the unit.

Thanks
