4.0 out of 5 stars
best low end unit,
By Currahee (South Mississippi) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Garmin Fishfinder 100 Blue 3.9-Inch Waterproof Fishfinder (Electronics)
The Garmin fishfinders model 100blue and 160blue are basically the same unit. The only difference is screen size. These are the best low end fishfinders available today for the salt water fisherman or diver. The gray scale and adjustable contrast show up as well as any LCD unit under sunlight. The screen/pixel resolution could be better but it's a price difference. If you want ultimate resolution go with the model 240. The real plus of this unit is its durability, ease of operation and the power of the dual frequency 300 watt transducer. Like most Garmin marine products their fishfinders are built to last, water intrusion and breakage won't be a problem under normal usage. Operation is also very intuitive, if you read what the zoom, gain and frequency mean then you will know how to use the unit. A readable manual is also provided. The unit performs well, the transducer signal is able to penetrate somewhat in to the bottom. This will give you an idea of bottom composition and structure, all important to offshore fishermen.In all, if you are looking to get a saltwater sounder and price is a concern than one of these two units is for you. If you can go a hundred or so dollars more you should consider the model 240. |
