Which FishFinder / depth finder to buy?

What is the best fish finder for the money today?

I really do not need much more than the ability to "accurately" determine depth at speeds up to 20 miles per hour. GPS and fish locator would be nice, but not really needed. I simply want a good, "low cost" depth finder.

What make & model? Where is the best place to buy it?

THANKS, Gene

I think the concensus here is Garmin, and the best prices I have found anywhere is http://www.planetgps.net

Sure, they sell alot of GPS units, but they have great prices on fish finders too!

For more features -- look closely at Garmin. But if all you want is depth: there are several gauges that just give a digital depth read out. They list for $50 - $100 but you can often find them on eBay dirt cheap.

I run one in addition to my other finders with a low water alarm set to about 3 feet.

I have had good luck with Eagle. You might want to consider one with a temperature readout if that is important to you. The FishEasy 2T is an older model that sold for about $120-$140? I have seen the newer Eagle Fishmark 320 in Bass Pro for $150 with the 400 being $200. The difference is the resolution. The website seems to have a higher price than the actual in store price.

I stand corrected about the price mismatch. The website has the Fishmark 320 for $149 which is what you can purchase that unit for in the store.
