hi
i had a bit left of my bcf card so thought i treat my self and would go buy a few things ready for snapper season.

first was Lowrance Hook 7 Combo to help find some snappers since i sucked last 2 years lol

second was Shimano Raider Spin Rod 2 to 5kg with a Shimano Stradic Ci4+ Spin Reel for squiding and bait catching.

third was a Rogue mesh Landing Net

hope this helps this year.
good luck to all and safe travels

nice one, if you cant see them on that, then they arent there. Haha. TBH, you will be able to knock snapper over on that combo too.

Grate man, :a_goodjob: i am myself on the market for one ...not sure yet if i go for Hook 7 combo or Elite-7 Ti
I hope you get plenty huge snappers :thumbsup:

:a_goodjob: nice purchasers.......

Nice buy mate! Hope you get onto a few this season :thumbsup:

Yeah mate if ur chasing in ppb I'd be using that combo on reds! I use heavy sticks for the very tidal wp but ppb has next to none

Cant comment on others but elite 7ti is ok..
Things i dont like is only has one card slot
Hard to use touch screen at 20kts
Bluetooth is to yet available
Gets very hot

Other than that its been good

Not many youtube vids on how to use it

I thing the "push button " one will be as hard to use at 20 knots?....
My understanding is that it have a 3 way transducer so more flexible?

So the Hook 7 will do as good ...but no touch sceen?
I see they still sale the Elite 7 wich i believe is exactly the same as the Hook 7 witch have been rebranded, and it is about $100 cheaper?
