I bought a Garmin Striker 7Sv and mounted it on Pelican Catch PWR 100. I also explain how to use it. Let’s see how well it works…!!!

I have same graph but with a Scotty mount .... I'd never put screws driven into bottom of kayak, there's constant pressure, movement and shifting in plastic when paddling or heck ... Even just sitting in water. Yes, putting silicone is a temporary fix but it's a band aid fix.

Letting the silicone cure properly is key… heck, I’ve forgotten that I even did that. And I’ve NEVER taken on water. You’re right though, it is risky business

Like your video. I have Striker Plus 7SV I bought a couple years ago. Th GPS mapping works great. I fish mainly on a small watershed lake which is not very deep; 4-8ft and about 12-14ft in the deepest areas. My transducer is mounted on my trolling motor. Looks like you are using Chirp? Have you determined what frequency is best? I troll about 1 - 3mph and would like to figure the best screen sweep for that speed too.

Thanks bro. Either will work. It’s small enough for the small one in my opinion. The Ram mounts are really good and stable. Shouldn’t have any problem. But if you wanted to be absolutely sure, go with the bigger one.

Honestly the only thing that I really felt like I upgraded by getting the pro series was touchscreen and 2 inches bigger. I still stand by the Striker 7 as hands down the best at that price point.

In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens kzfaq.infoUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.
