Fishing Electronics ReviewFishing Electronics Review – We all look for an edge on catching fish but first we have to find them. In this section we’ll review and discuss fish finders, depth finders, temperature gauges, GPS, Loran C, or anything else electronic you use on your boat or from the bank to locate those elusive trophy fish of a lifetime.
If you had a chance to buy a new lowrance or humminbird fish finder which company would you choose? How much would you be willing to spend? Which model would you have chosen? I need your thoughts on this one.

i have 2 humminbirds and they work great for structure and depth as far as finding fish they ALL seem about the same to me.I have the 400 dual beam thingy and the pro angler also a dual beam.I don't think i ever caught a fish while there was a fish symbol displayed on the screen of either.
a Buddy of mine has a garmin and that seems to be pretty good.Little better of a readout on the screen than the humminbirds and a bit more options to play with.
Don't know much about lowrance,so i can't say. As far as price i like to spend as little as possible,but for something like a fishfinder I feel its best to spend a lil more and get the product that offers the best quality you can afford or are willing to spend.
Not sure but don't think theres a BIG difference between lowrance and humminbird,so i'd get the one that offers more for the money your willing to spend.I could be wrong,but if theres a difference i don't think its gonna be that big of one.
misterwhisker, thank you our input. I'm looking at the humminbird matrix 17 and the lowrance X52. What is the most important thing in finding a fish finder.
