Active Imaging

Perfect for pinpointing fish-holding areas like rockpiles, standing timber, weedbeds, ditches and drop-offs, Active Imaging™ sonar delivers superior clarity and the highest resolution images of fish and structure at a longer range than any other structure-imaging technology.

Transducers sold separately.

FishReveal

Makes fish easier to see on DownScan Imaging™ by combining CHIRP sonar fish targets with superior, high-resolution views of bottom detail, structure and bait fish. FishReveal removes the need to display CHIRP sonar and DownScan Imaging in a two-panel split-screen.

Find Key Fishing Areas with Contour+

Spend more time trying to catch fish and less time trying to find them with the high-resolution detail of C-MAP® Contour™+ inland and coastal charts built into HDS LIVE displays. From finding key fishing areas, like ledges, drop-offs and ditches to navigating with precision to fish-holding areas, you will have more success on the water with high resolution, bathymetric 1-foot contours on 15,000+ U.S. lakes and 9,400+ lakes in Canada. Update the mapping of your favorite fishing spot or map unmapped areas with ½ foot contours – in real time – on the screen of your HDS LIVE with C-MAP® Genesis Live.

Smartphone Notifications

Keep your eyes on the fish and never miss an important text or call with smartphone notifications built into HDS LIVE. Turn off phone notifications for uninterrupted fishing, or leave them on to receive popup notifications on the screen of your HDS LIVE display.
