I put an Elite 5 Chirp on my pontoon so I could scout while riding the wife around Murray. I think you’re missing out if you don’t have the chirp unit. I can mark fish at 30mph…you can’t do that with HDI. Chirp technology really enhances fish finding capabilities…

Great prices all around on the older elite 5, though the chirp sonar seems like a pretty significant advancement in sonar tech., at least that’s what the manufacturers would have you believe.I think I’m going with an elite 7 chirp.
