Sidescan sonar...worth the cost?
I recently sold some rods/reels and have a few bucks to spend. I'm thinking of getting a structurescan HD add-on for my Lowrance HDS7 or a new grouper rod/reel (both around $600). I'm leaning toward the sonar but wanted to get some advice before making a decision I might regret. Anyone using the structure scan and how much more effective do they find it for finding fish/structure?

Can't really say. Here where I live it's a 25 mile run offshore just to get to 30' of water. That's about as far out as I go in my 17' boat. That's where the above screen shot was taken. No trouble at all at that depth on using the 800 frequency, and could easily go deeper. After that I could just drop town to the 455 frequency for deeper water yet.
Maybe someone that has actually used it in deep water will jump in with some first hand information.
