My buddy has a need for a fish finder on his boat. He's got a fish n ski boat and wants to purchase one. We're taking the boat out to DVL in a couple of weeks.
I know that the big sale at BPS is going on. Any suggestions, that would'nt break the bank?

Probably, around $500-, color, maybe side imaging?

Hummingbird? Lowrance?

Hi, this doesn't have anything to do with fishfinders and I may be in the wrong forum but I have a question for all. Does anyone know where I can go to have some nice reel seats installed unto my phenix rods? Please pass this on to anyone that you feel could help. I live in Corona and work in Irvine as a defense planner.
Mahalo brothers and keep a tight line.

anytime buddy. you know right now i have a hummingbird 387ci but i have been looking at the Lowrance Elite-5 DSI. for an upgrade. i heard people were not impressed with the HDS models in the Lowrance line up so i stayed away from them. and hummingbird is getting expensive even though i love there products and they have always served me well.

also look at gpsonsale.com they have good prices but dont have the Lowrance Elite-5 DSI yet.
