i have a basic eagle depth and temp type fish finder.

about a 100$ machine and 5ish yrs old.

i see these new fish tv advertised all over ebay and other places, i fish basic small lakes and ponds

i have about 250$ saved towards fishing stuff and was thinking of upgrading

ideas? i have a jon boat and a canoe and would make anything portable. as i do now.

i fish mostly bass and pickerel.

anyone have any experience with these fish tv ? how far do they see etc.. lighting

am i better to save my $ and use the basic one i have?

thank you.

What's wrong with your Eagle? What model is it? How many pixels? How do you have it set-up (ping & chart speed, sensitivity, etc.)? Upgrading to a sonar, with higher pixels, is always a good idea. My Eagle has 480 x 480 pixels, so that's plenty good enough, if you have it set-up correctly and know how to use it.
