I am contemplating some options this winter and one is revamping my sonar units. Currently run HDS 3 Lowrance 9 & 12. I feel like my scouting game isn't what it needs to be, so my perception is the Mega Imaging side scan is considerably better than the Lowrance side scan. But I also have plenty of $$$ into Lowrance so I want to make sure I am making a smart decision if I did switch.
One question I had is with the wiring, I have ethernet cables (lowrance) run front to back in my boat. I have NMEA nextwork setup. Could I use any of my current wiring, or is it just running all new stuff?
My other question revolves around shallow water fishing (6 ft and shallower) with the 360 - is it legit? Should I wait for something a little bit more advanced to come out? Seems that has been out a while now and both Lowrance and Humminbird I'd imagine are working on something.
Thoughts?
Thanks
