Garmin STRIKER Vivid 5cv Fishfinder w/GT20-TM Product Description
Imagine gliding across a glassy lake at dawn, your line ready, but the real game-changer is knowing exactly where the fish are hiding. The Garmin STRIKER Vivid 5cv paired with the GT20-TM transducer turns that guesswork into precision, painting underwater worlds in striking, high-contrast colors that make fish returns pop against structure. Anglers from casual weekend warriors to dedicated tournament pros swear by its clarity on everything from bass in shallow weeds to walleye hugging drop-offs.
This compact 5-inch powerhouse shines on kayaks, small jon boats, or even ice setups, delivering pro-level sonar without the steep learning curve. Its seven vivid color palettes let you dial in the perfect view for murky waters or crystal-clear depths, separating baitfish schools from trophy targets effortlessly.
Standout Sonar Performance That Finds More Fish
At the heart is Garmin's renowned CHIRP technology via the included GT20-TM transducer. Traditional CHIRP sonar (77/200 kHz) sweeps wide for broad coverage, while ClearVü scanning sonar (455/800 kHz) delivers nearly photographic side-down images. Spot suspended crappie or bottom-hugging catfish with ease—the vivid enhancements make subtle differences leap out, even at speed.
- Seven Vivid Palettes: Customize contrasts for your water conditions—think fiery oranges for weeds, cool blues for open water.
- AutoGain and Fish ID: Cuts clutter automatically while icons help newbies ID species without second-guessing arches.
- Ultrascroll: Keeps targets sharp even when trolling fast for salmon or stripers.
GT20-TM Transducer: Built Tough for Real-World Fishing
This 4-pin workhorse mounts cleanly on your transom or trolling motor, with a 20-foot cable and built-in temp sensor for tracking thermoclines. Rated to 1,900 feet traditional depth (750 feet ClearVü), it handles freshwater rivers to coastal bays. Pro tip: Adjust the transom angle (0-70 degrees) for your hull to minimize air bubbles and maximize clean readings.
GPS Smarts to Own Your Fishing Spots
High-sensitivity GPS plots waypoints for those "honey holes" you never want to lose—mark a jigging spot for perch or a drift for fluke. View speed, course over ground, and create routes to repeat proven patterns. The built-in Quickdraw Contours lets you map up to 2 million acres with 1-foot contours, sharing custom charts with buddies via SD card.
Real anglers love how it logs water temp graphs alongside sonar history, helping you correlate bites with conditions for smarter patterns next outing.
Easy Setup for More Time Fishing
Tilt/swivel mount adjusts on the fly, and hardware covers transom or trolling motor installs. IPX7 waterproofing shrugs off splashes, rain, or the occasional dunk. Current draw stays low at 0.40A, perfect for battery-powered rigs. Beginners: Start with factory settings, then tweak gain for your local waters—higher for deep reservoirs, lower for skinny flats.
