Best thru hull transducer

[elysianfishing]

Switching to Garmin from Lowrance. Just purchased a Garmin Echomap Ultra 126SV with a transducer. Looking to mount this unit on the console. Which is the best thru hull transducer for depth readings while running? Changing batteries out this year as well, so a good time to do it while doing that process.

Thanks!

I like my GT15 but it also important to have it in the sweet spot.....

As someone who just ordered a GT36, what would the advantage of the GT15 over GT8?

I've used both the GT15 and GT8 for inland bass fishing (depths out to 60 feet). For this application, I observed no differences in performance. Currently using the GT8.

Thanks. I appreciate your info. I’ll keep my eyes out for the GT8 then and save a few $.

Does the GT-8 work for all the modes of the garmin? SI, clearvu etc? (everything except livescope)?

No, it only does 2d sonar.
