Wtb. Cheap colour sounder

Post by ducky » Sun Dec 11, 2016 6:55 am

Ignore the jokes on Wollys post. I am seriously chasing a cheap sounder for my float tube.

I'm tempted to go new. $109 for a hook3x. $189 for a hook4x. But I figured I'd see what's out there.

Garmin 300c
Lowrance 3, 4, 5 inch sounders in the elite/hook range
Anything else that's colour screen and in ok condition will suit me fine.

Home made enclosure/ghetto transducer mount is made. Just need the sounder to finish it off.

I picked up a Garmin Striker 4 Fishfinder yesterday they seem to be a lot better than the Lowrance Hook 3x and not much more.

A mate has lent me a lowrance x4 black and white for the time being. Got it yesterday. Will rig it up. Still thinking about colour though.
