Lowrance HDS-7 LIVE w/Active Imaging 3-in-1 Transom Mount & C-MAP Pro Chart Product Description
Unlock Crystal-Clear Waters with Advanced Sonar Imaging
Imagine gliding across a lake at dawn, your boat humming softly, and suddenly spotting schools of bass hugging a submerged tree line—crystal clear, in real time. That's the edge the Lowrance HDS-7 LIVE delivers to serious anglers. Trusted by tournament pros who demand precision, this compact 7-inch powerhouse combines cutting-edge Active Imaging 3-in-1 transducer tech with intuitive controls, turning guesswork into targeted strikes. Whether you're chasing walleye in deep reservoirs or crappie near structure, its refined sonar reveals details others miss, helping you drop baits exactly where fish hide.
Built for real-world fishing, the HDS-7 LIVE shines in choppy conditions or bright sunlight. Anglers rave about how FishReveal overlays make fish targets pop against clutter, while the responsive touchscreen keeps you focused on the action, not fiddling with menus. It's not just a fishfinder; it's your on-water command center.
Active Imaging: See More Fish, Structure, and Bait Like Never Before
The included Active Imaging 3-in-1 transom mount transducer fuses CHIRP sonar with high-definition SideScan and DownScan, painting a vivid picture up to 300 feet per side. Forget fuzzy images—Active Imaging delivers sharp, photo-like clarity on wrecks, rock piles, and weed edges. Pair it with StructureScan 3D for shadow-free 3D views that make drop-offs leap off the screen.
- Enhanced Surface Clarity: Spot surface-schooling fish or bait balls without interference from waves or foam.
- Live Network Sonar: Sync multiple transducers across your boat for wider coverage and precise target marking—ideal for big-water trolling.
- FishReveal Smart Target View: Blends CHIRP arches with DownScan detail, so even subtle bites stand out amid bottom haze.
- LiveSight Compatibility: Watch fish reactions to your lure in forward or down views, perfect for finesse jigging or slow trolling.
Pro anglers often combine Dual-Channel CHIRP for split-screen high/low frequency views, catching deep striper runs while monitoring shallow baitfish simultaneously.
Superior Navigation: Chart Your Path to Hotspots Effortlessly
Preloaded C-MAP US Enhanced charts cover thousands of lakes with 1-foot contours, spotlighting humps, points, and channels pros exploit. Genesis Live lets you map custom contours on the fly—overlay your data for HD detail on uncharted waters. Easy Routing auto-plots safe paths around hazards, factoring in your boat's specs for stress-free trips.
- Store 5,000 waypoints and 100 trails to revisit honey holes season after season.
- Navionics Autorouting ready for seamless upgrades.
- Heat Map tracks temperature shifts, zeroing in on turnover zones where fish stack up.
Wireless downloads keep your maps fresh without docking, and the internal 10Hz GPS antenna locks satellites fast, even under heavy canopy.
