If you think high-definition is restricted to the TV at home, think again - now even your fishing equipment can be high-def, thanks to Furuno's FCV620, which combines reliable fishfinding equipment with the latest in digital filtering. The FCV620 utilizes Furuno's DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology, a revolutionary digital filter that adapts to your fishing environment by adjusting gain, STC clutter and output power, as well as suppressing main bang (the echoes just below the tranducer). DSP also makes the picture on the FCV620's super-bright, 5.6-inch LCD screen clearer, so it's easier to decipher between baitfish and larger target species. The sunlight-viewable screen employs 256 colors with a wide viewing angle, displaying even the subtlest of echoes. Additional features include seven basic operation modes that allow you to choose the perfect method of display according to your specific fishing situation, along with eight range scales down to 2,500 feet. The FCV620's waterproof construction allows it to be installed on any bridge, whether it's desktop-mounted or flush-mounted. $895.
