Bright screen and simple to use.....I like it.

This locator is just the right size to use on my boat and on my UTV as a gps. I have only used it a few times but I am super impressed with the features. The triple shot is awesome...I can see in all directions. When I take this ice fishing I can use the side views to help me locate structure and fish under the ice ....no need to guess if I am in the right spot...the locator will tell where to move. The display was easier to read in direct light than my last unit. I like to play with the settings but being able turn it on and automatically set up is nice. I think I will still make adjustments for my style. Overall I am pleased with the purchase and I bought another hook2 for my nephew as an early Christmas present. I found the mounting really easy and anyone who is handy with basic tools should have no problem. The triple shot transducer is a little larger that I thought it would be but it certainly is not in the way. Beacuase I am in Canada 🇨🇦 I am adding a map chip of Canadian lakes. I was also pleasantly surprised at the clarity of the screen....at 52 my eyesight isn’t that great so I couldn’t possibly go with any smaller of a screen. The downscan imaging is a nice feature, I thought it may be hard to interpret but it was good.

The Perfect Size

I had always wanted to get a Lowrance sounder for my Hobie Revolution 13 "Lowrance Ready" Kayak. But the feature and units they have can get overwhelming fast. It really boils down to a couple of different size factors for me. I found a place that had the Hook2 5,7, 9 and 12 inch screen sizes all next to each other. The 5" is actually bigger than I thought, and the quality of the display is excellent and bright. Although I have not had the unit running yet out on the water yet. Hoping to see some exciting views and visuals with the all in one Triple Shot transducer! Special hull plate can be found for the triple shot transducer. This particular unit comes preloaded with maps for 4000 lakes! Except the most important lake of all "Lake Havasu". But I digress. The unit along with the Hobie kit installs perfectly. I used the 1.5 inch ball Hobie Ball systems and swivel mounts which help extend the Unit towards you depending on placement, and to keep it perfectly in place based on the amount of motion and jarring you can get while on the water. I was able to place the unit on my left just forward of the rudder controls, just aft of the first foot notch. I used a slide lock ball mount for the hull attachment. Keeping it on the top rail, allows for maximum articulation of the brackets. Once back from the trip, I'll try and update this review for the brightness effects, and some pics of the installation while in operation on the water.

Works great..easy to use

Works great on my new pontoon..

Love the large screen and clarity of pictures.

This is one of the better ones for the price. It puts me spot on to the fish! Had just a little trouble with the wiring in as I did it myself, but it was a simple fix if you follow the instructions!

Great price, but I still haven't gotten mine.

I love this graph. A friend has the same model and that is the only one I have used. Amazon was very quick to take my 400 bucks and " guarentee" next day delivery, yet here I am 3 days later and still no fishfinder. Back to the review though. It is a very nice unit with tons of features for the price and if I ever get mine I will post pics or a video. If you are looking for an inexpensive side scan graph, this is the one for you.

Love this unit

Love this unit! Been using it a little over 2 months now and no issues. The install was fairly easy and the unit is ready to go right out of the box.

Love this on my kayak!

I mounted on my kayak and so far I am super impressed. I wanted the sidescan feature but didn't have room to add another transducer. This package fit the bill. The sidescan has helped me locate fish under docks and has proved to be a real game changer. The auto tuning helps take all the guess work out so I can spend more time fishing.

Super easy to use!

Thus unit has all of the features of the expensive units at a fraction of the price! The unit has mapping, traditional sonar, downscan, and sidescan. The main page was really easy to navigate though all of the different sonar and map pages and you can have split screens for maps and the different sonars. For a 5 inch display it has a ton of features and I am really impressed. Compared to my older units the screen is really easy to read in the sun light. That makes seeing the fish a lot easier. Also having to mount only one transducer to get all of the sonar features was really nice.
