Subject: RE: Lowrance vs. Humminbird?

I have spent a fair amount of time trying to decide between the Low and the Bird. If after countless hours I am right here are some of the following thoughts:
The Lowrance uses digital technology vs analog so it should be crisper.
The Lowrance waypoint/icon system is way better than the bird.
I think the sonar is clearer.
I think the downscanning is better.

On the bird they have had side imaging out longer
The lake master highlight feature is nice
I like the screen layout.

In terms of customer service I have called both low and bird tech lines and had great help from both. Not sure why everyone is dissing low?

Either decision would be good. I am going with Lowrance as to me it has more options that will help me catch fish. (waypoint/icon system) The side imaging may or may not put more fish in the boat, but for the troller locating structure to troll around may be like cheating.
