I am in the market for a new fishfinder. I mainly fish deep waters of Lake Superior.
I am retiring (finally) my Lowrance LCX 27c, and because of this unit and Lowrance bad customer service I don't want to go back to the same brand.
Here in MN, the dominant brands are Lowrance and Humminbird, with Garmin being 3rd, but I would like to step out of the box, and hear about Furuno, Raymarine, and others.
Budget is not unlimited, I would like to stay under $ 1,000. Also for as interesting as Side Imaging it can be I am not interested in it, since I am not fishing structure, but temperature and water column.
I would like to get the best possible definition and sensibility.
What you guys have and/or suggest. Saltwater people please pitch in.
...and please let's don't make it a Ford vs Chevy vs Dodge style discussion, thanks.
