The Lowrance Eagle is an affordable and easy-to-use fish finder series designed especially for beginner and hobbyist anglers. It offers a clear CHIRP sonar image, a chartplotter (detailed area-specific maps are always sold separately), and automatic settings that make it simple and effective to use. The flagship model of the series, the Lowrance Eagle Eye, provides a live view directly under and to the sides of the boat instead of a traditional fish finder, making it easier to locate fish. The Eagle series is an excellent choice for anglers who want a reliable basic device without complex adjustments.
The ActiveTarget 2 is Lowrance's most advanced real-time sonar, showing the movements of fish and lures underwater accurately and without delay. Unlike the first version, the ActiveTarget 2 offers improved image quality, a more stable data connection, and the ability to connect multiple sensors, allowing the user to view the underwater situation from multiple angles simultaneously. The system works particularly well for precise casting, vertical fishing, and competitive situations. It is compatible with the latest Elite FS, HDS Live, and HDS Pro series devices.
All three – Lowrance, Simrad, and B&G – belong to the same Navico group, but they are targeted at different user groups:
If you want a fish finder, chartplotter, and ActiveTarget compatibility, Lowrance is the right choice. If you are looking for complete marine electronics control offshore or in a sailboat, Simrad or B&G offers tailored solutions for that.
