Hey guys merry christmas and happy new year. I am saving up my money (as a 13 year old) and investing it towards a HOBIE kayak 2 person. I am looking to fish lakes and of course la jolla kelp. I was wondering what fishfinder i should buy that will work well. I am only 13 so money is an issue the lowest price for the fishfindeer that works is good enough for me . I was looking at the hummingbird pirhana max the $70 dollare one from walmart and was wondring if it is any good. Any recommenmdations are helpful.

I have hummingbird pirhana you can have for free, but you need to find a transducer for it. The transducer is the expensive part of the fishfinder and is not worth buying. Better to find someone that will part with it for free.

If you can find a cuda 350 for cheap get it. It has gps and is a great fishfinder. Of your gonna spend money on rigging up your boat do it on the fishfinder. Its the most important tool on your boat.
