A 7 or 9 in monitor is easier to read in a shelter or on a boat, where the screen sits a few feet away. Many of these use a separate battery box and a longer cable, often 75 to 100 ft, so they suit fishing from one spot more than walking between holes. Recording is common here even at budget prices.
