You wouldn't be using the unit to target spawning brown trout, would you?
I've used the old(Bottomline), and new Fishin' Buddy units. IMHO, the new Hummingbirds are nicer units. Everything is self contained in the unit, and it mounts with a strap-on holster. I've used the Fishin' Buddy on my boat too.
I've look at the Smart Cast/RF units, but decided not to try them. A few too many negative reviews, and it just doesn't look like it would have enough detail for what I'm using a sonar unit for. Although, for the price, it would be worth a try.........as long as you could return it if it didn't work out. BTW, I've heard good things about Hummingbird's customer service. I've experienced just the opposite with one of their competitors.
