Fish Finder with a Budget

[savage308]

I'm in the market for a new fish finder. It will be used for salt & freshwater in depths less than 100'. Started haggling with my wife on my budget starting at $1200 and we ended up at a max purchase price of $600. GPS is not a big deal, this unit needs to be user friendly. What has been your experience??? I don't want to buy a lemon and be stuck with it for a while.....Remember my budget is $600...

Well, I got a Humminbird Fishfiner "525" from Wal-Mart for only $125, and it is excellent in my opinion. I have also heard other people say good things about it.

Garmin 250c, a user friendly device at a good price. i had one for a good long while but it went with the boat. I liked it and for the money was a good unit. I also hear good things about the Hummingbird 595
