I need a fish finder for a inland lake in Michigan. I bought a cheap lowrance but it will only give accurate reading going extremely slow. Does anybody have anything they can recommend? Im more concerned about depth reading than fish.

I have a lowrance mark 5x dsi. It sucks. It had the same problem. Try angling the transducer down some more. like push the tail end of it down a few clicks so it points more forward. worked for mine
I'm thinking about selling it and gettig a garmin echo but I rarely take the boat out anymore so I just never got around to it

Poorfags gonna poorfag.
I have a Simrad GO7 XSE on my big boat. It works well as a finder and the GPS is fine. Takes both navionics and lakemaster cards as well. It has NEMA 2000 so I get fuel consumption and other stats from the engine.
My inland lake boat has a Humminbird Helix 7. Fewer features than the Simrad and no CHIRP but it is an awesome side scanner. Very accurate GPS and if you add a lake card the shit is perfect. On straight up GPS and graphing capability I prefer it to the Simrad.

What type of boat do you have? Also, what kind of depth...lake trout 200 ft or bass in 15 ft?
A budget fish finder for only around $100 will report depth accurately.

I spent 20+ years fishing without one and used to scoff at them too. But if you've never used one you really don't know how they work, their capabilities, etc. They're not fish on a map or in a side-view like into a fish tank. It's raw sonar data vaguely representing a narrow instantaneous portion of the world passing under your boat.
The more I've learned without one and the better angler I've become the more I respect their value. Especially after learning what the image actually represents. They don't simplify fishing or make it easy, it's actually more complex and adds another challenge.

Fuck you cuck boy. Go suck a bass dick. I bet you never even caught a big fish.
