Fishfinder help
I'll be replacing my kayak FF before spring and I could use a little help.
Currently, I'm looking at several of the "4" series from Lowrance. I'm really interested in the chartplotting/waypoints feature, as well as down imaging. Does anyone have any experience with these yet, or know of a comparable Humminbird you'd recommend? I also did manage to find one of the last existing Eagle Cuda 350s online. Little over $200 shipped I really wanted one of those last Fall, and now they're done making them. Anyone have experience with these? I'm setting my cap at $300 regular price

I've got a buddy with the Cuda you mentioned...works as promised...no problems...good value...maybe a little weak on power and pixels, but he don't mind.

I'm also looking to replace the sonar on mine. Currently I'm using a Lowrance X-135, but after Florida I want GPS available. I have no imput on the small units of either major brand, I need at least a 5" screen to see it - old fart eyes, y'know. I'm considering moving a 'bird 797Csi to the 'yak from the boat, as I'm not happy with the SI with the transducer on the trolling motor and it's small (5" to me now is small) size difficult to see when standing, especially when in a split screen mode. It should work better on the 'yak because my eyes will be closer to it.

ken- I'm still kicking that Eagle around. really like everything I've read on it, including the reviews.
boogie- 4" screen isn't too bad for me in the yak. At least for now And the FF is mounted pretty close. Pretty much between my knees
