I attached a screen shot of one of your image pics with a few questions wrote on it. Im still in the process of learning how to read one of these to decide which brand i like best before i take the big plunge!
by just using the side imaging, how can you tell if a contour is a hump, or a depression? Is it really easy and im just not seeing it? LOL
Thanks for your help!

See my post for nailman. I won't even try to get into which unit is better. Here is what my experience is. You can tune on either a Lowrance or Humminbird until you have a perfect pic.....but sooner or later you have to fish....LOL. I can post better pics but it takes time to go through settings....color palettes. My settings will change each time out because of the water. I have used it enough to know that I have found a Gill bed and I know what one looks like with fish in the beds. So I get pumped up and start fishing.....LOL. Sooner or later I will hit a big bed where there are a ton of fish on it and get a pic of that. It is quite a sight. I am trying to hit Center Hill to look for shell cracker and at Normandy to look for walleye on gravel. One thing I really dislike in kayak fishing is the wind. Where I want to go on both lakes is going to be open to the wind so I have to pick the right day to go. I have had many opportunities to snap great shots of bass...catfish thrashing around on a jug line.....but just get excited many times at what I am seeing I don't hit the mark to take a pic. Right now my mind is in search mode for bluegill. This fall I expect to see tons of crappie at Nickajack on the unit. I don't think one would go wrong with either brand....but I have to say I have called Humminbird several times about things and they have always been on the phone in a few minutes and if the tech I am talking with can't help me he or she consults with another tech to get the answer. Humminbird advertises their unit can side image in 2 feet of water...I can say that is a fact. I just know one of these units will change the way one fishes.
