Just curious, the DsI version is good up to 200ft in depth compare to 1000ft for non DSI. Is 200ft good enough for general kayak fishing around SD?
I guess its good as long as you are not targeting rock fish which usually 200+ down. Anyone want to share experience using DSI feature.

That was my worry because I sometimes fish beyond 200 so iguess this would not be suitable for my needs.

200ft is plenty good for around here or anywhere. You can still use the basic fish finding for locating structure at 200ft plus, you may not be able to use the DI or the SI at that depth but the basic still works.

short answer is if you fish anything over 100 feet I would not recommend the DSI

Doesn't that go for most DSI systems?
