In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens kzbin.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.

Twenty years ago, the thought of fishing from a kayak or jetski was pretty much non-existant. To see how they're kitted out now is quite amazing.
@fishingmad3 жыл бұрын
Yeah kayak fishing and jetski fishing sure has come a long way in recent times. The demand is really growing. Its not everyones cup of of tea but i like mixing up ways of hitting the water.
