Lowrance HDS PRO 16 w/DISCOVER OnBoard - No Transducer — Product description
Transform your time on the water into a fishing adventure packed with precision and excitement. The Lowrance HDS PRO 16 with DISCOVER OnBoard charts opens up a world of crystal-clear sonar views and detailed mapping, helping you zero in on prime fishing spots without the guesswork. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow lakes or tracking schools offshore, this powerhouse fishfinder and chartplotter delivers the tools serious anglers demand, all from a massive 16-inch touchscreen that's as intuitive as it is responsive.
Standout Features That Elevate Your Fishing Game
Built for anglers who want the edge, this unit packs cutting-edge tech into a rugged, boat-ready design. Picture this: real-time fish movements unfolding right before your eyes, structures popping in ultra-high definition, and charts that guide you straight to the honey holes.
- SolarMAX HD Touchscreen: Battles glare and polarized sunglasses with over 1200 nits of brightness, ensuring you see every detail even under the harshest sun.
- ActiveTarget 2 Live Sonar Ready: Witness fish reacting to your lure in high-res forward, down, or scout modes—now supporting dual systems for multi-angle views that keep you ahead of the action.
- Active Imaging HD: Upgraded to 1.2MHz for sharper SideScan and DownScan images, revealing baitfish, wrecks, and bottom contours with stunning clarity.
- FishReveal with SideScan: Merges CHIRP sonar arcs with imaging for effortless fish ID, extending to sides and below your boat.
- C-MAP DISCOVER OnBoard Charts: Dive into 1-foot contours across thousands of U.S. and Canadian lakes, plus coastal vectors and custom shading for quick hot-spot hunting.
These aren't just specs—they're game-changers that turn frustrating slow days into limits filled with trophy catches.
Superior Sonar and Mapping for Deeper Insights
Lowrance's latest sonar innovations shine here. Active Imaging HD pushes boundaries with finer detail at higher frequencies, perfect for picking apart weedlines or spotting suspended crappie. Pair it with ActiveTarget 2, and you get live sonar that tracks individual fish responses, helping refine your presentation on the fly.
Mapping gets a boost too. Genesis Live overlays real-time bottom data right on your charts, while overlays from Scout mode or Ghost Trolling Motor 360 let you correlate live sonar with your position. Upgrade paths keep it future-proof with options like C-MAP REVEAL or Navionics for even more granularity.
"Switching to HDS PRO felt like upgrading from a flip phone to a smartphone—everything just works better, especially in murky water where side imaging saves the day."
Seamless Boat Control and Networking
Take command from bow to stern. Touchscreen integration with Power-Pole anchors means one-tap deployment, while Ghost Trolling Motor support adds Orbit Waypoints and remote anchoring. NMEA 2000, Ethernet, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi weave it all together—share sonar across screens, get phone alerts, or stream weather updates.
Expand effortlessly: Add radar for safety, autopilot for long runs, or even SiriusXM for tunes and forecasts. It's the hub of your ultimate fishing system, scalable to match your style.
