I am a recreational salmon fisherman out of the Port of Rochester. It is time for an upgrade to my fish finding electronics. I am a big fan of the Garmin products. On some post I saw in the past it looked like you were connected to the Garmin product line. I was wondering if you would be open to recommending the best system for the type of trolling we do? Unit, transducers, etc. Thanks.

First of all, thanks for replying. I am sure you are a busy guy this time of year.
I fish a 1991 Tiara 3100 Open. I have a Garmin 2006C gps mounted in the dash. This will stay but I would like the new head unit to also have GPS. I have a 6 inch color Raymarine "fish finder" that uses a thru hull transducer. This is the unit I want to replace. No room to flush mount whatever we choose. Not looking forward to pulling out the thru hull. I would like the new head unit to be able display traditional sonar (high and low frequency). I would like it to be able to "zoom" the top 200 feet of the water column when fishing out deep. I do not have radar or an autopilot and am not planning to add them. I am interested in Garmin's Panoptix.
The boat I tow to Florida (I am retired) is equipped with Garmin's GPSMAP 8612. I like the touch screen. 99% of my fishing up here is trolling. Looking forward to your thoughts and recommendations.
