Virtually every map and chart Lowrance offers comes loaded on the hard drive, and owners have complete access to them all with no additional fees.

The LCX-111C HD has a sturdier mounting bracket with a broader base and a tilt mechanism with square cogs instead of the usual V-shaped ratchet teeth. The cogs keep the heavy unit from self-adjusting as the boat hammers through rough water.

STEADY WITH CLEAR READINGS--DEEP AND SHALLOW

We tested the unit with the single-frequency (200 kHz), 20-degree Skimmer transducer because we feel it's a better match for most freshwater fishing than the dual-frequency (50/200 kHz) transducer. The unit read a steady 0.8 feet during our shallow-water test and tracked a 162-foot bottom (the deepest water in the test lake) at our test ...
