I plan to buy a a sonar/gps unit for my boat. I plan to move my vexilar up front to the bow and mounting the new locator in the back. I just don't know what I really want right now, I know I don't want to spend a grand on one but more like $500-$600 is more realistic. I have been looking at Lowrance quite a bit. I currently have a H2OC with a lakemaster chip in it. Does lowrance units accept Lakemaster or would I have to pick up the Navionics for it. I figured it would be nice to have the combo in the boat and have the handheld for ice fishing.
Also whats the difference between the external gps and the internal gps?
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
