What customers say about "Key Specs"
Raymarine Dragonfly 4 Pro Chirp Fish Finder with Built in GPS and WiFi
  • This is the only unit I know of for consumers with CHIRP down imaging that is affordable.
  • Holds bottom very well even at speed, excellent fish marks with a setting to show the depth the mark is at.
  • This has multiple frequencies sent down and you can see everything clearly.
  • I'm very impressed! Finally able to troll contours while still registering fish and bottom structure at the same time.
  • It worked well and as advertised the picture quality is great. Great bottom detail.
Lowrance Hook-3X (000-12635-001) Sonar
  • Great little sonar for my yak.
  • Perfect for reading depth and temp from small boat.
  • Decent depth finder for the money, I'm able to find brush piles with this unit.
  • Accurate depth readings while trolling around and with motor running.
  • This is not designed for 100's of feet of water. Other more powerful units are made for that.

What customers say about "Features"
Raymarine Dragonfly 4 Pro Chirp Fish Finder with Built in GPS and WiFi
  • The connection for the transducer and power is nice. One simple weather tight plug.
  • The GPS seems to update fine, no lag as with some models. I would recommend this product to others.
  • Easily one of the better investments for our boat. It gives an estimate time to destination that adjusts with speed as well.
  • All the features of the big boys wrapped up in a smaller package. Awesome unit for the money!!
  • The GPS part is great and I love that you can have a split screen with charts and GPS or depth finder as needed.

  • Great unit, easy to mount extremely accurate.
  • Easy to wire and mount, comes with all the required hardware.
  • Simple to use, and easy to mount!
  • It reads depth and temperature well.
  • It does much more but I mainly use it for depths, water temps and bottom graphics.
