every time i was in BPS, i would ask about the elite 5 and elite 4 and as some of ya know, i want DSI but was told by numerous ppl that the "lowrance ready" pro angler would not work with it ...UNLESS..... i got a transducer arm OR scupper mount....because the DSI does not work "thru hull".....but then again, ive had ppl say that it works fine and not to worry about it...........well, i kinda am cuz i dont wanna drop a chunk of $$$ on something that wont work....................................so, i decided..." SCREW THE DSI, ill just get the chart plotter/sonar".............so here i go....off to BPS , whistlin and sayin to myself, " hell, i got this", AGAIN..........so i ask the guy about the maps that it comes with because i mainly freshwater fish and hit the reservoirs (tridelphia, rocky gorge, etc) and he says..." oh, well they only come loaded with coastal maps, basically, saltwater..............but you can go spend an extra 199.00 at navionics and get the lake card or 99.00 for your state alone "........................................um......w hat?.......i had specifically asked about Tridelphia bein on there and was told YES each time......so now, it all changes again....back to uncertain square one..............................................t his would be my first depth finder.........i have NEVER used one and have done fine.....maybe i should just stick to the old school and forget the whole depth/fish finder thing......im so confused and hearing so many different things, i dont know what to believe........................................... ........Case of beer of your choice to anyone that will hold my hand thru this ordeal and help me out!!!! lol HELLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!
