  • Great product, large screen, highly recommend.
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
Great product, has more features than I can use. I have used in FL keys several times and along Georgia / SC coast, very accurate pre-loaded maps.

  • GREAT GPS/SONAR FOR THE MONEY
Size: 9 Inch Style: No-Transducer
I purchased this a year ago and used it almost every day fresh water fishing in South Dakota. It is much easier to use than old Lowrance models as touch screen easy to navigate especially for an old guy--and easier to see also.

  • Great Unit for the average freshwater fisherman
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
This is my second FS 9. I mounted it in the bow of my tracker and networked it with console FS 9 which shares the same transducer and works awesome. Love these units

  • Lots of great features
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
There is a lot more going on in this unit if you are upgrading from a Hook Reveal as in my case. The touch screen is great and the images from the sonar are much better. The chart has some good features like depth shading and easy touch and add waypoints. It is also great to stop and back up the sonar to fish or structure you just went over and set a waypoint with a touch of the screen. ... show more

  • Great product!! Easy to install.
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
Very happy with it!! I like the preloaded maps. We used it on Lake Shasta CA. on a 7 day family houseboat vacation. It has the depths, water temp, maps, side scan, fish finder. Everything you need to fish and enjoy your day. Never felt like you needed any other navigation. I have it on my SeaRay 1996 - 215 Express Cruiser. My other boat 1990 SeaRay open bow has a older Eagle Fish Elite 640 that has no where near the detail this one has. ... show more

  • It's Awesome But It can be Annoying!!
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
The product works great. I tried it and it does lead you to where the fish are. I'm also using it in conjunction with my Motor Guide Xi5 trolling motor to autopilot to way points. One thing annoying with this unit is the fact that sometimes it gives you this "Stopped" message during power-up, like your transducer is not connected. There is a fix to it (search it in YouTube), but I wish there is a permanent fix for this bug. Still, I would buy it again. 4.3 stars. ... show more

  • Excellent unit lightyears better than. My humminbird
Size: 9 Inch Style: Active Imaging 3-in-1
This Lowrance elite fs 9in has been the reason for my last 6 trips on lake stevens pulling limits of kokanne. If the sonar shows a school off to a side I deutsch to side scan and find the side where the fish are and mark them. I then swing around in my 120 pdl kayak and pull fish from that school. I get better using this elite fs every week when I hit the water. I was gkingbto buy the HDS but for a kayak the elite is amazing. A 20ah lithium battery on Amazon is $60 and more than you need fir a day fishing and only weights 6 lbs. Everything has come along way so I woukd say get the elite sf and start feeling like your cheating because you can actually find and stay on the fish much easier. If your fishing from a kayak yak hobby has the best mount for the transducer, it's very over built and easy to fit to your kayak especially if it's an oldtown 120 pdl. ... show more
