Lowrance HDS-10 Fishfinder/GPS Chartplotter For Serious Fishermen
By Rodger G Allenby
The personal needs and tastes of people differ in all things.
This is especially true when it comes to technology. What works
for one person may not work for another. Take for example fish
finders.
The fish finder that a recreational fisherman uses, is not going
to be the same one that professionals use. The guy or gal who
fishes just a few times a year is not going to want to pay $2,549.99
for the state of the art Lowrance HDS-10 Fishfinder/GPS Chartplotter.
It is not economically feasible for them to do so unless they
just really want to spend that kind of cash.
A Better Fishfinder
Comparing the Lowrance HDS-10 Fishfinder/GPS Chartplotter to
other fish finders on the market is akin to saying that all boats
are alike. The fish finders of the past were black and white digital
readouts of water terrain with the occasional fish like shape
swimming into view.
If you were lucky, the fish finder would show the temperature
of the water and at what depth the fish were staying at so you
could cast your line or net accordingly.
Pre-Loaded With GPS Maps
This is simply not the case with the HDS-10. This fish finder
comes pre-loaded with GPS maps of the surrounding area as seen
from above and it also comes with information about the area where
you are fishing.
Plus, you can keep track of where your best fishing has occurred
thanks to its SD memory slots. If you are worried about being
able to read the screen, then stop worrying because it has a 10.4"
VGA color display that allows you to see it in the daylight or
at night.
As of May 15, 2009 it became completely compatible with Navionics,
which means you can buy and download additional maps for wherever
you are fishing. There are some price variations for the Lowrance
HDS-10 Fishfinder/GPS Chartplotter. It really comes down to the
kilohertz and the type of base-map system you want.
More Features For A Lower Price
If you review your options and elect to go with the lower end
model, then it just offers the enhanced US base-map for $2,299.99,
yet you still get all of the great features of even the slightly
higher priced models.
All in all this is definitely a top of the line model that serious
fishermen can really sink their teeth or hooks into.
