Location: Mt. Zion, IL | No way I would consider garmin for SI over Lowrance or bird. The new 3 in 1 is so close to the hb mega that it’s hard to tell the difference. Garmin has live sonar marker cornered, but their SI and DI is not close. Have used all 3 and within the last year. I prefer the touch screen units and wouldn’t buy a helix for that. Map sharing and back scrolling with the helix are another pair against helix units. Scrolling with a helix stops the sonar.
Solix, apex, or hds live IMO if you want the best SI, DI, and sharing capabilities. |
