I just have the factory charger, non dcs

Thanks for all the input guys,

I will only be fishing half day on saturday as I’ve got my brother’s 30th birthday party later that evening. If im not in too bad shape might go at it again sunday morning.

I have read both pros/cons about keeping a battery hooked up, but i know it is essential to give it a charge after a prolonged period and occasionally during the softwater season.

Also I think my brother will be up for sunday to try out the VX-1 he is getting…

ICeNutz,

I think your mixed up, the LX-3 has single transducer. In order to get the dual beam I would have to fork out an extra $200 for the LX-5.

Would be nice if we had a Joint Canada/USA eligibility.

Great Site im glad to be here, will be testing out my LX-5 for the first time this weekend. Here in SW Ontario were just getting first ice.

Can wait to put some technology to my 20 years of ice fishing.

Any Chance us Canadians could be eligible to join this contest? Kinda feel a kick down low never being eligible for anything.

That Second fish was a real trophy for me, as great as it is to get out on the river alone it would have been nice to have a cameraman for that one.

As crazy at it may sound I cancelled my order with cabelas for the LX6 and decided to keep my LX-5. Although digital LCD’s are a way of the future I’ve opted to learn the ropes the old mechanical way first. In a few years well see what happens.

Now that I’ve put this to bed after days of going back and forth I can sleep now and only focus on one thing now… Ice in Southwester Ontario

Looking like another Week or so before we have safe ice.
