Hello. New guy here. I am an inshore saltwater guy and I found this forum to be the best resource on Humminbirds of anywhere (including Humminbirds own site) I've looked. My son and I both run Helix 9's on our bay boats (me a G2 and him a G3N) and I just bought one of the BPS Helix 10 SI G2N's on Black Friday. I've already used it and although I still have a ton to learn, I am very impressed so far. Some of the threads on here have helped me tremendously already. Thanks so much to all of you.
I have a couple of questions about 360. I know I can't use the new 360 MEGA with my new unit but can use the older 360. I realize that no one here has one of the new units yet, but do you think that the improvements in the MEGA units will make it worth the higher cost and needing at least a G3N DI+ control head? We fish artificials only working shorelines and other structure with our Ulterras on about 90% of the time. Pretty much like saltwater bass fishing. Should I jump on one of the older 360's before they're gone or save my money for the MEGA?
Also, has anyone seen or have experience with this mount for the Ulterra? http://www.cumberlandcrappie.com/accessories.html It's looks like it's this or use the retractable mount on the back of the boat and I really would prefer to have the 360 on the front. Are there any other options?
Thanks again for such a great HB resource!
David
