Fish Finder - Which One?

[5 Salt]

I need to purchase a fish finder and sure could use some advise.

Looking for a quality unit with GPS/WAAS capabilities. Possibly something that could drive electric downrigger(s). I fish primarily coastal rivers, bays, and Buoy 10 with plans to fish north end of Vancouver Island, B.C. beginning this Summer.

Budget is not really an issue. If the right unit costs $2,500 then I will, but sure would mind spending only $1,500 or so. Bang for Buck is always a good feeling.

Bottomline, Lowrance, Furuno, other...???

Looking for a good product review source as well.

Thanks for sharing.

As far as I know Bottomline is the only unit that will controll downriggers. Though I am often wrong.
