Pros
  • Costs less than most tackle bags, so a first boat or kayak gets sonar and GPS for little money
  • GPS lets you mark a brush pile or hump and drive straight back to it
  • CHIRP sonar separates fish that sit close together better than older single frequency units
Cons
  • The 3.5 in screen is small and coarse, so split screens are hard to read
  • No down or side imaging, so structure shows only as 2D returns
  • No lake maps; you only see waypoints and contours you record yourself
