Lowrance Elite FS 7 Chartplotter/Fishfinder w/Active Imaging™ 3-in-1 Transom Mount Transducer

Imagine heading out on the water, confident that every cast or troll brings you closer to your next big catch. The Lowrance Elite FS 7 transforms that vision into reality for serious anglers who demand clarity beneath the surface without the hassle of complex setups. This compact powerhouse blends cutting-edge sonar imaging with intuitive charting, helping you pinpoint fish-holding structures, track bait schools, and navigate tricky waters with ease. Whether you're chasing bass in shallow bays or walleye in deeper lakes, its Active Imaging 3-in-1 transducer delivers crystal-clear views that reveal what traditional sonar misses.

Anglers rave about how FishReveal overlays sonar returns on high-definition imaging, making it simpler to distinguish fish from structure at a glance. No more second-guessing echoes—see individual fish tails waving or baitfish scattering in real time. Paired with its responsive touchscreen, you'll spend less time fiddling with menus and more time reeling in trophies.

Unrivaled Sonar Performance for Serious Fishing

At the heart of the Elite FS 7 lies its versatile sonar suite, supporting CHIRP for precise target separation, SideScan for wide-area bottom scanning up to hundreds of feet on each side, and DownScan for photo-like images straight below your boat. The included Active Imaging 3-in-1 transom-mount transducer covers all bases, offering Medium and High CHIRP frequencies alongside Side and Down Imaging. This setup excels in varied conditions, from murky rivers to clear reservoirs, letting you spot submerged timber, rock piles, or weed edges where fish love to hide.

Ready for upgrades? It supports ActiveTarget live sonar, showing fish movements as they happen—perfect for dialing in your presentation during competitive tournaments. Real-world users report spotting crappie beds or following stripers on the prowl, turning average outings into limit-fills.

• FishReveal combines CHIRP sonar with imaging for effortless fish ID
• Active Imaging ready for enhanced Side/Down views
• CHIRP frequencies optimize for everything from jigging to trolling

Crystal-Clear Display That Stands Up to Sunlight

The 7-inch high-resolution LCD (800x480 pixels) shines at up to 1200 nits, ensuring readability even under the harshest midday glare. Wide viewing angles—up to 70 degrees left/right—mean everyone in the boat can follow the action without crowding the helm. The multi-touch interface feels natural, like your smartphone, with quick-access scrollbars for zooming in on hotspots.

Solar-flare tested by guides on southern lakes, this display resists washout, keeping sonar returns sharp when it matters most. Its flush or gimbal mount options fit kayaks, bass boats, or center consoles seamlessly.

Preloaded Charts and Smart Navigation Tools

Hit the water with confidence thanks to built-in C-MAP Contour+ charts, featuring 1-foot contour lines on over 8,900 U.S. inland lakes. Custom depth shading highlights ledges and drop-offs, while fishing-specific POIs mark humps, points, and marinas. Genesis Live lets you create personalized maps on the fly, overlaying your sonar data for future trips.

Easy Routing and Autorouting calculate safe paths around no-go zones, saving time on multi-stop days. Inland anglers love how it details creeks and rivers, while coastal users appreciate offshore-ready options. Store up to 3000 waypoints to revisit honey holes reliably.

• 1-foot bathymetric contours for precise depth reading
• Custom shading and high-res icons for quick interpretation
• Supports additional C-MAP or Navionics cards via microSD

Connectivity That Keeps You in Control

Wireless networking links multiple units for shared sonar views across the boat. NMEA 2000 and Ethernet expand to trolling motors, anchors, or even music systems. Touchscreen control for Power-Pole anchors means set-and-forget positioning, while Ghost trolling motor integration offers autopilot precision—ideal for finesse fishing or windy days.

Power it with a standard 12V system (3A fuse), and its IPX7 waterproofing shrugs off spray and rain. Operating from 5°F to 131°F ensures reliability from ice fishing to summer slays.

Simple Setup for More Time Fishing

Installation boils down to mounting the display and transducer—flush dash for sleek looks or gimbal for easy removal. Transom transducer placement is key: aim for 1/3 back from the stern, parallel to the hull bottom, avoiding strakes or turbulence. Use the included bracket for secure hold, and route cables neatly with zip ties for a pro finish.

Compass-safe at 12 inches, it won't throw off your heading sensor. At just 1.9 pounds, it's lightweight for solo riggers. Pro tip: Calibrate sonar in calm, deep water for peak performance, and update software via microSD for the latest enhancements.
