Universal Sonar 2: Your Fishing System supports Universal Sonar 2, a state-
of-the-art, integrated and protected transducer that is built into the lower
unit of Minnkota trolling motors. With Universal Sonar 2, all wiring is
concealed inside the indestructible composite shaft—out of sight and out of
harm’s way, with no clamps, ties, or exposed wires. Universal Sonar 2
features new temperature sensing and the performance of DualBeam
PLUS™ technology (available with all Humminbird® DualBeam PLUS™
models). An expanded view and greater bottom detail gives you a totally
new perspective of the water below, along with optimal sonar performance
to help you find fish.
Downriggers are the key to catching fish you otherwise couldn’t even touch.
And now Humminbird’s CannonLink™ Downrigger Controller makes
operation of up to six Cannon® Mag 20 DT or Mag 20 DT/HS downriggers
incredibly easy. Using the controls on your Fishing System, deploy or retrieve
downriggers, hold a specific distance off the bottom, cycle downriggers
between two depths, and adjust the Positive Ion Control. Even see
temperature and water clarity at depth and speed at the ball right on-screen
when using the Cannon® Speed-n-Temp. You’ll never be shorthanded again,
just make adjustments from the helm, while your mate rigs the lines and
brings in the fish!
With the new InterLink™ Network Connection, you can now share GPS
position, waypoints, routes and your current track between two
