Looking for recommendations for a fishfinder in the $199 range. I mainly fish the flats and would be for my 16' skiff.

Thanks!

i've got a garmin 300c, its a small unit that does a decent job, i paid around$250 for it but think they have dropped in price a little bit :-/ if your fishing the icw up here all you need is a basic unit that will give you accurate depth measurements so you can find the holes, no need to go broke buying much more imo

Thanks for the info. I'll check out the 300c. Yes, I mostly fish the ICW from Palm Vally to St. Augustine. Sometimes I go out to the Croaker hole in the St. Johns near the Shand's bridge.

Just ordered a Gheenoe NMZ. Not sure if qualifies as a 'skiff' but is what I could afford I will have a side mount grab bar and looking for a GPS/Depth unit.

Mostly will be on the Edisto, Ashley and Santee rivers in Charleston, lots of shallow water. Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance.

I don't own a fish finder, but have been looking into them. The humming bird fishing buddy series interested me. It's portable and self contained, which I like since I fish mostly water 8" or shallower. Give it a look.
