Can i get this deal all the time or is it a special sale

There is an expiration date for the payment plan. And I'm not sure how often they offer this plan. You may have to call and see or sign up and get email alerts.

For example:

You can use 6 pay at any time, you just have to call and place your order over the phone.

really dude? What a helpful post. Lots of people are new to using FF. Me for example. I have been fishing my whole life and JUST started using them and am really unfamiliar with good brands, reliable units, which do better in saltwater, etc.

seriously, when did fisherman become such tools? or is it just here in CA? go back to bloody decks, mang

sorry im no expert when it comes to electronics. i've only had one fish finder, an eagle cuda 168, and it came with my kayak. i've always fished "blind" using land marks, and paddies and following birds. most of my fishing is done from the surf where you cant use a fish finder and have to know how to read the waves and see the current break to find holes and troughs that hold fish.

so yes.. i do need help deciding which fish finder to get.

I have the mark 4 installed on my outback. I was looking at the hds5, and was saving for it. I have never owned a FF before and didnt know if the hds was too much unit to start with. I really like the mark 4 it gives (I think) accurate readings I can see bait with no problem and track my rig to the bottom most of the time. GPS works real well and pinning way points is easy. If you are looking for a good solid entry level unit the mark 4 is a good choice. Having said that I can see upgrading in the next couple of years after I have a better understanding of how to use all of the features. I have the xducer installed using a modified wet mount system and it has worked great.
