rover1966, this is what you can expect to see with a Humminbird 597 HD di unit. This is a predator fish (probably a rockfish) traveling under/through a school of baitfish. Very clear sharp images.

Dynamite, that would be the time to use it.

LOL, uh NO!
12.9 feet of water under the boat? I think it might be a little bit of a rough ride when the dynamite goes KABOOM!

LOL you still have to catch them and they are always on the move. That's why it's called fishing and not catching...................woody

I wonder what that Hawg would have looked like on the DI-like Jaws getting ready to attack the boat.

That new 360 imaging would show ya some brutes too im sure!

I'd love to have the 360!

The 360 imaging is pretty sweet. I need to save up and get side imaging for the console.

Get my side imaging tomorrow and will have it on the kayak next week. Pretty excited about it.

That's going to look pretty friggin sweet on a kayak. I think you win the award for the most expensive piece of electronics on a plastic boat here.

You know I have had a few give me odd looks about putting an 899 on a kayak.....but that is how I fish a lot and I am pretty sure it is going to benefit me big time.

Oh yeah it will benefit you. You will be able to paddle down a bank and locate any and every crappie or bluegill hang out. You could always get a mount and another transducer for your other boat and just use it on both.
