Unlock Next-Level Ice Fishing with Standout Features
Real-Time MEGA Live 2 Sonar: See the Action Unfold
The star of the show, MEGA Live 2 sonar paints a live, ultra-detailed picture of what's happening under the ice. Switch between Forward and Down modes to track fish movements, watch them zero in on your bait, or even zoom in real-time for pinpoint precision. Covering a wide 20° x 120° field, it reveals fish hugging the bottom, suspended cruisers, or those finicky biters ignoring everything else. In practical terms, this means less time searching and more time hooking up, especially during those tough bites when fish are spooky and selective.
Ice-Optimized Design for Harsh Conditions
Cold weather wrecks lesser gear, but this bundle laughs it off. Ice-specific cables—18-inch power leads with spade connectors and inline fuses, plus a 4-foot version for the transducer—ensure reliable power without fumbling in gloves. The gimbal bracket and premium silicone cover protect against slush and spray, while the compact pole-mount keeps your setup stable on any third-party ice shuttle or pole. It's all about minimizing setup headaches so you spend less time rigging and more time reeling.
Versatile Ice and Open Water Modes
Start in Ice Mode for a streamlined dashboard: consolidated home screen, ice-themed waypoints, battery monitoring, and enhanced 2D flasher views perfect for vertical jigging. When thaw hits, toggle to Open Water Mode effortlessly. Your investment travels from shelter to boat, supporting Dual Spectrum CHIRP, MEGA Imaging+, and compatibility with Minn Kota i-Pilot Link, US2 sonar, radar, and more for year-round dominance.
Premium Mapping at Your Fingertips
Pre-loaded LakeMaster maps, including SmartStrike features, spotlight over 13,000 lakes with 1-foot contours, depth shading, and shallow highlights. Paired with Humminbird Basemap, dual micro SD slots let you expand with Navionics, CoastMaster, or Platinum+ charts. Spot potential hot zones before you even drill, saving precious daylight.
Effortless Setup and Pro Tips for Maximum Results
Assembly is straightforward: Mount the 9-inch color TFT display (1280x720 pixels, 24-bit grayscale) via the gimbal or pole. Connect the MEGA Live 2 transducer using the 5-foot Ethernet cable, power everything with the included fused lines, and pop in the XPLORE map card. Note the need for a third-party ice shuttle/pole—pair it with trusted options for full mobility.
- Pro Tip 1: Use the X-Press Menu and customizable views to toggle between flasher, 2D sonar, Live sonar, and mapping instantly. Set temperature alarms and graphs to track thermoclines under ice.
- Pro Tip 2: Leverage advanced 2D flasher modes (with compatible XI 14 transducer) for superior jig tracking—ideal for perch or crappie that demand subtle presentations.
- Pro Tip 3: Network multiple units via the 5-port Ethernet switch compatibility for a multi-hole operation, sharing sonar and GPS data across your crew.
- Pro Tip 4: Bluetooth and Wi-Fi open doors to software updates and wireless control, keeping your unit cutting-edge without cables everywhere.
Power-wise, it sips at low draw with built-in GPS speed and temp sensors, ensuring all-day runtime on a standard battery. Target separation down to 2.5 inches means you distinguish lure from fish with ease.
Built to Grow with Your Angling Adventures
This bundle shines in isolation but thrives in ecosystems. Sync with Minn Kota Talon anchors, i-Pilot Link for spot-lock precision (even under ice via extensions), NMEA 2000 for heading sensors, and AIS for safety. 360 Imaging ready, optional high-power transducers, and One-Boat Networking make it future-proof. Sonar options like 50/83/200 kHz expand versatility for open water.
