My Bro-Inlaw has had a G-140 on his boat for 10 years without a hiccup. The only thing he's had to restore is the transducer cable, (mice chewed on the cable when the boat was stored).

Eagle fishfinders are made by Lowrance. They tend to be very good value. Having said that, it looks like the starting price is closer to $300 for a sonar/GPS combo, and $500-600 for a decent one. They can go for $1200 with all the bells and whistles. Go to Cabelas.com or Bassproshops.com. Eagle fishfinders are made by Lowrance. They tend to be very good value.

I am looking to buy a fishfinder and would like some advice on which one to buy. I will be using it trout fishing on the lakes in Ireland, and don't want to spend a fortune if there is a basic model which does what I need it to (depth / trout!! being the main functions). I have been looking at the Garmin models, but there is quite a range, and a range of prices, so any help gratefully received! What is the best fishfinder to buy?
