Yeah I will be there at around 1 right after church. Church is over at about 1130-1200 then I will load up and get there as soon as I can. I have never been there before so I have to get directions. Is there an address that I can type in that would make it easy?

Hmmmmm, well there might be an address? If you are looking for directions, try typing in Whitey's Jolly Cone burgers/drive in, which will get you on Jefferson Blvd, once you get to Whiteys on Jefferson Blvd, pass Whitey's (it will be on your right,) go about a half (?)mile past till you cross water, make an immediate right after the bridge into the gravel parking lot. If you drive as far as the Nugget Market turn around. The closest addresses are residential really.

I think the official name of the park is something like "Barge Canal Access?"
Let me explain something to you. Um, I am not "Mr. Lebowski". You're Mr. Lebowski. I'm the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.

get the Cheapest one,,, they are the best ones....dont get a color, they drain the batt faster.

this one cost me under $100 w/batt and charger over 6 yrs ago.....it still gets the job done.
That is exactly what I want simple black and white and sites south. That's all. I dint need an hd tv 1080p blu-ray player yadda yadda, just basic black n white...
What is the model number of that?
this "exact" model is no more, but one of the major Fish Finder companies took over the same design and cheap factor. The tranducer has been "Lexel" gluded in my hull for 6+yrs.

It does see bait and krill......and your lure.

what would be a more modern, reliable comparable model to this one?

look at BassProShops online and they should have a cheap model. Garmin might have it too.....i'm not too sure what brand took over.

i've even seen them @ WallyWorld.

They have the single and double transducer Humminbirds at Walmart, both under a hundred I believe.

My transducer is gooped to the inside of my hull too, works really well.

You can get a Lowrance for a couple hundred bucks. I mentioned earlier that I have an Eagle Cuda 168 which is very similar to the Eagle Fish Easy. Basic FF that works good. Basically new. I used it 3-4 times before I got another Humminbird for my 3rd kayak. I still have an Eagle Cuda 300 I use from time to time also on another kayak. Let me know if interested. I will sell it for $45.
