Lowrance Elite FS 9 ActiveTarget™ Live Sonar Bundle

Experience Real-Time Fish Behavior with ActiveTarget Live Sonar

Imagine watching fish react to your bait in real time, darting toward structure or scattering from your approach. That's the game-changing power of the ActiveTarget Live Sonar system bundled with this Elite FS 9 setup. Anglers chasing bass around submerged timber or walleye hugging deep ledges report landing more trophy catches because they can adjust tactics on the fly. Unlike traditional sonar that snapshots the underwater world, ActiveTarget delivers live video-like feeds—forward, scouting, or down views—revealing fish movements around your boat, lure, and key structures.

This bundle pairs the crisp 9-inch high-resolution touchscreen with the dedicated ActiveTarget module and transducer, eliminating guesswork during critical moments. Whether you're finesse jigging in shallow bays or power trolling offshore, the clarity helps you pinpoint aggressive feeders and avoid dead zones.

Superior Imaging for Every Fishing Scenario

Building on proven Lowrance tech, this system layers CHIRP sonar with SideScan and DownScan Imaging for photorealistic bottom details. FishReveal smartly highlights targets in red against clutter, making it easier to distinguish species in murky water or heavy cover. Ready for Active Imaging 3-in-1 upgrade, it scans wider areas with unmatched separation, ideal for mapping weedlines or rock piles where big fish ambush prey.

• Spot bait schools swirling around your jig as it drops
• Track schools following your boat during drifts
• Forward view reveals fish ahead before you reach them

Users love how it cuts through thermoclines, showing suspended crappie or stripers that static sonar misses.

Preloaded C-MAP Contour+ Charts: Navigate and Hunt Smarter

Out of the box, dive into high-res 1-foot contour charts covering thousands of U.S. lakes, highlighting ledges, humps, and points where fish stage. Custom depth shading lets you shade by bite windows—say, 10-20 feet for summer smallmouth. Genesis Live overlays your real-time sonar data for instant custom maps, while Easy Routing plots safe paths around hazards.

Fishing POIs mark hot honey holes, and integration with other charts keeps options open for coastal runs or new waters. Spend less time idling and more casting into proven spots.

Seamless Connectivity and Boat Integration

Full networking shines here: Ethernet shares waypoints and sonar across multiple screens, NMEA 2000 controls engines or anchors, and wireless links phones for software updates or GoFree apps. Take command of Power-Pole anchors or Ghost trolling motors right from the touchscreen—no extra remotes needed.

Bluetooth pairs with accessories, and built-in GPS tracks high-speed 10Hz updates for precise boat trails. It's built tough—IPX7 waterproof, bright 1200-nit screen for sunny decks, and wide viewing angles for crew viewing.

Pro Tips for Maximizing Your Elite FS 9 ActiveTarget Bundle

Pair live sonar with FishReveal during spawn—watch beds form and males guarding. In current, use forward mode to time drifts over reefs. Dial CHIRP frequencies for species: high for panfish finesse, low for deep muskies. Network with structure scan to replay sessions, refining patterns for next trips. This setup turns casual outings into limit-filling days.
