Looking at electronics for my Kayak - I think I'm looking for a 7" screen with both Side and down imaging.

 

It seems the Garmin and Humminbird units don't have many maps for my state compared to Lowrance's  C-MAP and capability to download maps uploaded by other users. I fish in South Jersey, Lake Lenape for instance I could only find on C-MAP and I don't want to graph the whole lake to have that capability. But, let me know if I'm mistaken and have more options than Lowrance.

 

With that said, I'm looking at the Lowrance Elite Ti2 and the Lowrance Hook Reveal. Will the Elite Ti have better picture quality/clarity for sideimaging and down imaging compared to the Hook Reveal? if so how much better? 

 

Anything else I should consider let me know! Thanks

 

 

I don’t own either of these models, but I do have a couple Lowrance units and have been using Lowrance products for 20 years.

 

My opinion is that the Elite Ti will be significantly better in terms of quality, processor, and add on capability. The hook reveal is a solid unit too, but I see it as more of a basic version. Just my 2 cents.

 

Maybe someone who has experience with either of these units will chime in.
