Cheap Down Imaging vs Better Quality Sonar

Hadn't thought of that. I can mark my duck hunting spots and drive to them in the dark. Awesome.

I bought the Lowrance 4x HDI (no chirp) ice fishing soft pack for $250 @ cabelas... I loved it for ice fishing! Worked great had split screen either sonar/downscan (which I agree is pointless for icefishing or being anchored.) Sonar regular/sonar zoomed, and sonar/flasher. I saw tons of fish on this unit this winter and to be frugal I'm mounting the ice fishing transducer to my boat for summer to see how it works!

Hopefully this was helpful!
