Tedroost-my lx-7 came with one of the connectors kinda jacked up it wouldnt stay on the battery,i had to use pliers to bend it back in place, but still had 0 issues with it when it was first being used.

Yes I do have the newest update unless one came out within the past few weeks

Awesome I think thats the route I will go…8inch nils with the milwaukee fuel for next year sounds like and excellent setup. Thanks for the input everyone.

Thanks for the replies, the nils auger doesnt make a 7inch auger do they. I would prefer the 8 but want to get the most holes I can.

i was just in sd this past weekend, i also read this forum where some people put it in open water mode. I was fishing in like 5-6ft of water in open water mode and it worked just fine. I had the transducer barely in the water and it would pick my jig up about 1.5 ft down. I suggest trying that if you are going to be fishing anything less than 6 ft. I was running the lx-7 and lx-9

Thanks for all the input looks like the weather should be decent in the 20s

Im also heading to sd in a few weeks last year we didnt do that well for perch like we expected. Do you guys like to tip them with a minnow head or waxies for perch and eyes?

Troutbum, I cant seem to find that clam box on their website

Thanks for in input everyone it looks like that plano one can be designed any way you want it?

I started with the 6, then i bought a 9, now i have the 7 and 9 and sold the 6. Screen is way smaller at least it feels that way when you put them side by side. Also I am not one to complain about hole hopping with a bigger unit. Its not that heavy to pick it up and go hole to hole, I do it all the time. So dont let the 7 stop you because its a little heavier than the 6.

started with the lx-6 then got the 9 ended up selling my 6 and got the 7 as well…after fishing with the bigger screen ill never go smaller again. I hole hop alot its not that hard to carry it around. Go with the 7

Tyler they probably took the deal down I called them a day after i bought it and they had sold quite a few of them since i posted it.

They are out, i called them to make sure mine shipped when i saw they were out. He said they had alot of orders in the past few days on them (probably from this post.) I would maybe try to call them and see if they are going to get more.

If your leaning towards a new flasher go to http://www.streiffs.com/. You can get everything 20% off. I bought an Lx-7 for $560. I just checked it seems like they dont have anymore right now maybe call them if thats what your interested in. You can use the Promo Code Web20 at checkout to get 20% off your entire order. I just bought mine yesterday and posted on here maybe a bunch of others bought one as well cause the lx-7 is not on there. In my opinion the lx-6 is a little small but still will get the job done.

I like my raptor lol

Just ordered mine along with a few other things, they have alot of ice fishing stuff
