    Leadcore or copper

    Thanks guys I will save my money I mean copper for a new rig. I was told Penn 350 is a good choice for a reel? Of course I just bought a Penn 330 for my 10 color of lead. Do you have to get a spring tip and special guides for the rod?

    nope no twilli tip or special guides needed

    Does anyone have / used one of the new Lowrance HDS units?

    What is the advantage over last years HD units? Lowrance's website is more visual then informative about their new HDS units.

    We are thinking about the HDS-8

    the new HDS fishfinders have broadband sounder built in.. last yrs models did not.. had to buy broadband as a option.. do yourself a favor and look at the Raymarine A70 as well .. personally i cant wait to get the Lowrance i have off my boat.. either a Furuno or Raymarine will be going on soon!
