    Over 60+ fishing but I've only had a sonar for 30 of those. Many of those years I had an Ocean City thumb buster and my tackle box was a folded card of H&H spinners @.19 cents each. I've had a X 15 MT Lowrance for over 20 years, well 3 units really, one was stolen at Conroe in '03, the next was replaced by Lowrance in '08 and it is still on my boat and working great. Just old black&white technology and the GPS is slow as maple syrup but still works daily. I have over 500 waypoints marked on the unit. I also have another X15 MT in the closet for a backup.
    Dang I'm getting OLD.

    Jackie, at our age it is really good to have a backup. I bet even Lou has a back up plan too.

The reason is my friend has one and it works great, a little harder to learn than the Humminbird but he feels it is better and reasonable priced.
    I will be selling a Humminbird 1199 in the next few weeks.
    I'm far from an expert on this matter and just base it on my limited first hand experience of nearly 30 years.
    Your limited first hand experience in fishing is 20 normal folks lifetime knowledge of fishing.
    Remember, always help who you can, whether you know them or not, blessings come when you least expect it.
