Chowder......this may answer all your questions > http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishin ... php?t=5013 Hope to see you out there .

Thank you to all those that inquired and those that looked. Both units are sold. I upgraded my electronics this year and have these two units for sale: Garmin 250DF w/speed & temp. 12/45 deg `ducer. $150.00 OBO This pic shows 4 rigger balls, bait ball & fish around looking for an easy meal.This screen shot shows it set in "duel freq. mode" which gives sharp bottom image and wide cone angle to pick up balls and fish out wider than the boat. You get all componets that comes with unit plus the optional speed wheel ($65.00 value). *************************** Garmin GPSMAP 162 w/internal antenna $ 200.00 OBO Will throw into the package U.S. Recreational Lakes w/Fishing Hot Spots East v5. This unit is already preloaded with the Finger Lakes from Seneca east, Oneida lake and Eastern Ontario. I ran this unit under my hardtop and never had a problem tracking. Usually 18'+ accuracy. My new chartplotter has an internal antenna and also tracks just fine thats why I stayed with Garmin . No need to run more wires than necessary. You want both? lets talk. You want to pick up? We'll talk even more. If your serious then PM me and I'll give you a number to call me at. Thanks for looking.

I really depend on your priorities.......hurry and chance on spilling a perfectly good beer, or.......slow down, carefully finish your beer and hope the fish is hooked good enough to stay hooked. You decide!

Yes Mark, they are vary good units for the money. I also have the GPS Map 162 for sale. Had it tied into the 250 and they hand shake nicely. The only reason I'm selling them is because I had to spend some money this spring to get over cabin fever and upgraded to the Furuno 620 and the Garmin GPS Map 530 Chartplotter. So no need to keep the others around anymore. Just took some picture of the units for sale last night and will be posting them in the classifieds this week.

Yes, it is a dual freq. 50/200kHz (12/45 deg) transducer. The image above is in the dual mode. It's the only unit that I know of that will display both modes on one screen. Not split screen like most others. As you can see you get the best of both worlds. wide angle to show more of what is under you and sharp clear bottom depth returns. Here is a link to Garmin's info on it. https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=168&pID=245

Yes,..it is a complete system. Includes all mounting, installation and manuals

I know that your looking at the X96 but thought I'd throw this at you. I have this Garmin 250DF for sale, ...$150.00, OBO. Comes with speed & temp. Just upgraded my FF & GPS and haven't made a post in the classifieds to sell the units yet. Screen shot isn't vary good but good enough to see what it looks like. The 4 streaks across the screen are the downrigger balls. The 2 lower ones are the inboard balls straight down from the transducer, hence stronger (thicker) signal.

I have a Garmin 250DF for sale. Just haven't bothered to post it yet. Comes with speed & temp....$150.00 plus shipping if interested. Good unit, nice detail and if your an exhibitionist you'll be glad to know that it shows your balls real good :shock: .

I'm going to replace my fixed mount GPS with a new updated one and am considering the Garmin 530. Just looking for any input on this unit from anyone that has one. Are the preloaded maps any good? Any other opinions are appreciated.

...from all accounts of the rumors we've been hearing (& backed up by surveillance) it's funny stuff "on shore"

Well it took long enough to figure out what RR was doing to win this derby. Chaos sent me all the surveillance data last night and this is how he does it. Keep in mind all this stuff about having a boat then not having one, then got another one, might not get it rigged in time,.. blah, blah, blah.....is just to throw us all off thinking that he is out of the running. Images of him and somethig to do with his dock.... http://fieldandstream.blogs.com/photos/ ... bber_2.gif

`stix,.....PM in your box. no secrets split', promise

Yes sir Spilt',....right on top of it. Everyone knows that the limit is 2 lines per person,..........and we all know I loose track of things real easy. That's why Chaos left his blowup dolls with me when he blew town this winter. Not sure why he left in such a hurry. Something about outstanding warrants by the DEC but he didn't have time to explain as he threw the dolls out the window heading south on 89. Still working a getting a crew together for the LOU-All. Right now I'm up to 6 rods. That's 2 for me and 2 each for Chaos's stand-in's, Wanna & Sugar.

:shock: :shock: ...who does that apply to :? ??

Do you know if any rainbow's were entered? BTW, I'm a little disappointed that your name wasn't up in lights.

.....and no end of the game reports either.. :? Nice job Split'

Looks like that big boy was still ripe. What's dripping off Dan's right index finger?

Now Split',...everyone knows a secret isn't a secret unless you tell someone :shock: .

Rollie....PM in your box

I had to buy the transducer separately and got the transom mount. It looks like the prices have gone up since March (what hasn't :roll: ). I think I would have liked the thru-hull `ducer but couldn't get any info on wether it show the `rigger balls or not. That feature is important to me but by the way this unit displays my balls ,`rigger balls that is ( ), I think it would show them even with the thru hull `ducer set a little forward on the hull.

Here is a link to some good info. Check it out. I'm sure it will help you as much as it did me. As you'll read I ended up with the FCV-620. Had it out about 5 times now and am vary happy with it. http://www.lakeontariounited.com/fishin ... ht=fcv+620 Happy shopping

Boy.....I sure wish this spring derby would hurry up and get over. All this secrecy is really killing me . Pretty quiet out there :shock: . No more reports. No more b@ll busting. No more razzing. No more bragging :roll: . I can wait for Split' to spill his guts out when it's over so the rest of us can start catchin' instead of fishin' . Good luck to all in the Derby. Hope to see a couple LOU members win some prizes. I won't be fishing the derby. I'll be on the side lines waiting for some tips .

come on split, everyone knows that a secret isn't any good unless you tell someone (me ). That's what secrets are for. Right Z?

Nice job guys. I went out Saturday and was worse than skunked . Fished 4 hours and all I got was one of those snake fish like you have in your first picture. Guess I'm going back to fishing school :roll: . Your getting lots of hits on your post. They must be like the fish I'm encountering,....lock jaw .
