My P66 transom mount transducer got knocked off by a piece of drift wood over the weekend while I was en route through Race Rocks to Beechy Head. I've been able to re-install it for the time being, but, the bracket is damaged. I've been thinking for some time about getting a higher quality transducer. While I'm not keen on drilling a hole in the bottom of my boat, I've got an open mind as I want the best quality transducer I can get to ensure my sonar images are as good as can be. I understand that costs could be as high as $ 1500 and am willing to spend it if I get value. I fish typically in water less than 300 feet and spend 95% of the time fishing for Springs. I use Garmin 740 GPS/Sonar systems in the boat. I would likely have someone install it for me in either Vancouver or Victoria who knows their Sh*t. I want it done correctly. Would appreciate anyone who's moved up in terms of quality in their transducers, experience, would you do it again, how much better are the images......etc etc. I remember my old Humminbird Sonar would show my downrigger balls going up and down. That’s the sort of detail I need and obviously where the fish are.
