2 12s or 1 16 lowrance on dash

[jigman51]

Get two 16 inch screens and you will never lose another tournament.

[Cgs1967!]

I run a single 12 inch hds carbon and I like it. I would go for one 16 inch if you have the room.

I have the big hummingbird solix on my PHX21. Love it up front by the trolling motor, but wish it was two 12 inchers at the console. It’s honestly a bit tough to see over and I would have more room for side imagining.

I think the amperage draw is less with 1 16" than 2-12"??

[stepup]

I run 1 16" carbon and I have no complaints. The only thing I would like better with 2 12" units would be the redundacy if one goes out.

I would say if you know your lake or lakes very well and don’t side scan much the get a single 16. If you graph a lot and like to run side scan atleast 50% of the time get 2 12s.

Thanks guys for the ideas. i've decided to stay with my 12s

I'd just wait till the 20's or even better the 24's to come out, don't want to be that guy stuck with old tech.

I’ve used both 2 12s and a 15. Set up a custom screen with two small boxes on top and one large box on the bottom that spans the length of the screen. You will have more room on a 15 than with 2 12s that way. Only way to have more screen for SI with 2 12s is to have one unit looking left and the 2nd unit looking right.

NOW THERES AN IDEA!!

I know that two 5s are not as good as a 10. Unless the 5s know some stuff.

I would be is shamed it I had $15,000.00 in graphs and weighted in 5 for 7.5 , I guess I would do like some do just load up and go home .

You’ll have better resolution with a Lowrance 16 than you will with a 12. IIRC I’m thinking I’ll go with a refurbished Lowrance 16 with a year of warranty for less than $2K and then a 12” live on the bow.

[Rindfuss32]

One 16

[grout-scout]

One 16

How could you possibly see over that to drive?

Same resolution iirc

If you really know how to fish all you need is a flasher so you can see how the bottom is changing.

Maybe, sure is a lot easier seeing that brush pile 50’ away with side imaging though.

this is exactly why people come to BBC. Where else can you get powerful thoughts like this? ��
