spinnerbaitking Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I've thought of getting a Hummingbird Side scan a few times but heard about the Lowrance coming out with theirs so I waited, then I thought it wouldn't be worth the Money for my Small boat & the lakes I fish, but then I fish a lot of different lakes & I'm starting to fish bigger Lakes, are you happy with yours SBK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 the down look is great I believe the HDS5 screen is too small for all the features I really believe you need an 8 or 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 I run the hds7 with the LSS=1 module and it is like an Xray below the water. I wish I could put it on all my boats but for now it is on the one I use in big water. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbac31 Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 I have the HDS-10, HDS-8 with LSS-1 as well as the Sonic Hub right now. I have the software from Doc sampson as well for making and charting lakes. I love mine. If you want to know anything about them feel free to give me a shout. I have them figured out very nicely right now. I just ordered my Elite 5 " dsi for a portable. I also use a HDS-8 as my ice fishing unit. Once you go to these you will never go back. I'm finding structure on lakes I never knew were there. I have even found stuff like a Car on Scugog, Huts on Simcoe and other lakes. I would never find this stuff without LSS-1. Amazing the difference you see with 2d to Structure View. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
