I suggest you look at the Cuda series from Eagle. They range from 109.99 to just above 200 I think. If I were you I would buy the Cuda 168. It has an excellent screen, lots of options and it comes with a temp sensor, and there after sale service is second to none(my experience anyways).

Fishmark 320 would be my suggestion.

Hey Steve,
The Fishmark is an excellent unit but it would be nearly impossible to get one for $200. If you can spare the extra cash Fish you would really enjoy that unit.

really?

i paid 249 at fishing world almost a year ago...

i figured they would have come down in price.

not to mention Wal Mart carries them...so you could probably get it on sale through them.

i think they'll be around 200 Canadian at Walmart.

What do you guys say about Cuda240? It comes with a GPS plotter

LeBaron sels it for 300$, WalMart for 320$. I got mine from the states for 200US$+6% tax

Thanks for the info....I forgot to mention that I want a portable on which are a bit more expensive....

So far, I narrowed down my search to the Eagle Portable Fish Easy 240.

Any thought on this unit?
