Thanks for watching and the support. They both claim you can tell the bottom contour and bottom hardness. The Deeper is far better at doing this than the Garmin. Bottom hardness is kind of tough to figure out and takes some time to figure out. Both will pick up grass, hydrilla, and other vegetation pretty good. I found deeper will pick up more structure then Garmin. I can pickup big rocks and concrete better with Deeper. Small rocks or small piles on the bottom Deeper also does a better job on pick that up then Garmin. By far Deeper is way better than Garmin. If you are serious about a castable sonar then Deeper is the way to go. Spend some time with it and you will learn to pick up all the small contours of the bottom along with all the other stuff in a pond like logs, tree branches, vegetation, and even how hard the bottom is. You will even start to learn the difference between bass and other fish. Hope this helps. If you have any other questions let me know. Thanks
Are you related to Clint Smith, guy who runs thunder ranch? For what it's worth, I like my deeper chirp quite a bit. I ice fish and being able to rewatch my sonar later is awesome.
Thanks for watching and the comment. No I'm not related to Clint. Don't know who that is. Deeper Chirp is solid. Can't go wrong. I do like that feature as well. Thanks again
