I am actually about to buy one of these units, and I can definitely understand the points made. However, my wife and I began our venture into tournament fishing last yr, and couldn't help but notice the huge displays mounted on consoles of the boats that consistently held full livewells at weigh in. I am not saying this is the sole reason that our competitors produced, far from it... However, I would be foolish to not recognize the advantages that these units provide.

Of course everything is 3d, all i'm tryin to say is how far do you go with technology,we mine as well start putting inferred cameras and night vision on the units.

Lol, I just said to my wife the other night that the next thing would be infrared :-P

Sonar and the Imaging technology is better than infrared and night vision. It sees through any water color and at any time of day or night with equal effectiveness.

You can't catch them if you can't find them.

Agreed, you don't need advanced technology to do so...though...all the technology is gonna eventually take away from the sport IMO.
