Garmin International, Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ:
GRMN), today announced its first chartplotter and transducer bundle
with Panoptix all-seeing sonar technology designed specifically for
ice fishing. Anglers can now benefit from the game-changing Garmin
Panoptix technology that shows real-time moving images up to 100
feet to locate fish in any direction below the ice. Equipped with
everything needed for hard water fishing, the Panoptix Ice Bundle
includes an echoMAP™ CHIRP 73cv chartplotter, a Panoptix PS22-TR
transducer with LiveVü Forward and LiveVü Down capabilities, the
new GTH10HN-IF ice fishing transducer, Panoptix ice fishing pole
mount, and so much more – all in a convenient, glove-friendly
portable bag.
“With the Panoptix Ice Bundle, fishermen will be able to see
under the ice in ways they never have before so they can pinpoint
schools of fish faster, drill fewer holes, and spend more time on
what’s important – catching fish,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice
president of global consumer sales. “We’re proud to offer a
versatile hard water solution that will not only transform the way
anglers fish on the ice, but one that can be used when the ice
thaws, too.”
Paired with an echoMAP CHIRP 73cv chartplotter, the Panoptix Ice
Bundle includes two transducers and offers three types of sonar
views for use on the ice: a GTH10HN-IF ice fishing transducer with
Garmin CHIRP traditional sonar that offers a narrow beam angle (8
to 16 degrees) for crystal-clear images with remarkable target
separation and jig detection, and a PS22-TR that provides both
Panoptix scanning views – LiveVü Forward and LiveVü Down – to see
what’s happening up to 100 feet horizontally around and below the
ice. Unlike traditional or scanning sonar that only provides
historical data of what’s been passed over, LiveVü Forward shows an
image of fish swimming and moving toward or away from the hole, and
LiveVü Down shows moving sonar images below the surface.
Preloaded with industry-leading LakeVü HD maps that cover more
than 17,000 U.S. lakes, the echoMAP CHIRP 73cv includes more than
13,000 HD lakes with 1-foot contours shoreline to shoreline – two
times more than the competition. Like all Garmin chartplotters, the
echoMAP CHIRP 73cv is known for its easy-to-use interface that
allows for customized combination screens, so anglers can easily
access flasher, map, Panoptix views and more.
The Panoptix Ice Bundle includes a swivel pole mount for the
Panoptix transducer, a 12Ah battery with charger, power cable, and
foam float. Available in the fourth quarter, the bundle will retail
for $1799.99. The GT10HN-IF ice fishing transducer will also be
available separately for $169.99. For existing echoMAP customers, a
portable ice fishing kit that includes a GT10HN-IF will also be
available for $399.99. For more information, visit
