Can anyone identify this hook? Found it snagged up in the river with a white paddle tail and proceeded to slay on it. Great hookup ratio and did not snag up for me. Had it bitten off by a pike right at my feet, glad I took a picture!

Too bad their shipping is ridiculously slow. I placed my order over a week ago and it hasn't even shipped. ?

The echomap 73 and 93 UHD models are getting clearanced because there is a new transducer bundled with them, so the old ones are getting clearanced.

No, he likes the small screen, low key setup. I on the other hand, run an Echomap Plus 93sv and might go to a 10" depending on what Garmin releases in the next year.

My dad uses the Echomap Plus 43cv and likes it a lot. He runs the clear vu and 2d sonar at the same time.

This. I put my cables in a sandwich ziplock zipped as tight as it can go and put a rubber band around them. I've never had any issues and I've gone highway speeds in a monsoon with my yak on top of my vehicle...

The next version of livescope will be the next big thing

Garmin Echomap Plus IMO I run the 93sv, but the 6" and 7" units are solid too.

I run the 9" Echomap plus on my kayak and love it. I had the 7" before and the 9" is so much better when running a splitscreen. Plus Livescope is insane.

I would highly recommend that you go with the Angler Ace. The 4oz doesn't seem like much, but it actually makes a big difference in a paddle. Everyone already told you that the NRS Chinook is the gold standard and they were right!

As long as both units are registered to your Garmin account using either ActiveCaptain or Garmin Express, you are able to download maps to your own SD card through Garmin Express. Plug your Lakeview G3 card into a card reader that's plugged into your computer, open Garmin Express, and register the card. You'll then be able to download maps to your own SD cards, but they'll only be unlocked for units registered to your account at the time you download them.

This is the way.

IF you complain that your PFD isn't comfortable enough to wear all day you just haven't found the right one! Try a NRS Chinook, it's an amazing kayak PFD for fishing!

Go peddle. Save more and go peddle even if you need to go with a Hobie Compass instead of an Outback. I have a paddle kayak (Native FX 15) and it's great, but peddle is a game changer.

I previously had my transducer mounted on an arm and hated it. The drag to one side required constant correction and was unpleasant while paddling. I made a rear mount for my ducer and mounted it off of the rear of my kayak directly inline with the hull. No more drag to one side or another and great image quality. Now that I'm running a Hobie Outback, I don't have those issues. The Hobie Guardian plate is an awesome solution!
