Then there’s the battery life - you can take this thing out on the water all day long, come back for supper, and have it charged and ready to go by the time you want to hit the water again. You can scout and look for bottom dwellers with the wide cone, refine your search with the mid cone, then switch to the narrow cone for ultra-precise fishing.
What’s more, Deeper equipped the unit with 3 different cones and frequencies. Our top pick also offers incredible target separation of 0.4” - that’s owing to CHIRP technology, something that’s almost impossible to find on castables. The depth of the unit is exceptional, too you might only get 330 feet of depth in ideal conditions (and when using wide CHIRP), but even in poor conditions, the CHIRP+ 2 swims circles around the competition in terms of depth. As we all know, however, Wi-Fi can be a bit unreliable, so having a strong signal is a boon, even if you never send it 300 feet away from your boat.
You’ll almost never cast the unit to the limit of its max range of 394 feet. The Deeper Sonar CHIRP+ 2 is by far and away the best castable fish finder available on the market. When we started our research, we expected quite a close contest.
