Default Fish Finder's

Ok I know that we have spoke about this before, and I always yell Garmin.

But I am looking for a good fish finder and Garmin is not out of the running, but I am going to be hunting other fish in much deeper waters then ever before up to 300 ft and up to 30 miles from any land.

So what do guys use and recommend??

Money is no object as CB is buying it for me for Xmas!! *;) ;D

Hey MJ, If you're fishing DEEP you probably want a 1000w instead of 600w. Not sure if you can get the 620 w/1000w transducer.

Post this question on THT's Electronics forum and you should get plenty of advice I would think.

Furuno's are great units but I have heard complaints of the 600w in deep water.
