WTB- entry level fish finder.

[Westcoastmason]

Hey everyone. I just picked up my first fishing machine. It's a 1988 Malibu 202. Looking to get into an entry level fish finder/depth sounder. I don't really know much about them or even how they work lol. But I'm ready to learn and add a new tool to the boat. Let me know if you have something. I'm located on the sunshine coast, but will pay for shipping

facebook would be your friend for a hds 5 or 7 or even Garmin Series with plotter!

I've been looking. Nothing local to me on the coast.

For under 1000$ you could pick up something new that would take you beyond entry level.

$1000 is way out of my budget. That's why I made this post

Any personal reviews on this? That's actually a pretty decent price

No, but it caught my eye.
I'm using an old school grey scale version and it's worked well for years.

Garmin echo maps on sale at Cabelas.... love them units. Easy for a hillbilly like me to use.

I loved that hummingbird. Very easy to figure out.

If you’re interested I will part ways with an older lowrance hook 5. I think I still have the ducer for it. Should have chart sd card still in it. I’ll give it to you for a case of beer. Feel free to pm me for more info.

Hey Gham. I might have a line on one from another member. But if that falls thru, I will message you. Thank you very much for the reply!!
