Garmin Echo 550c Fishfinder Review
The Garmin Echo 550c has two major improvements over past fish finders – incredibly clear display that really takes the mystery out of catching big fish and the ability to have a constant display even when your fish finder is changing depths. Most fish finders erase history when you hit a major depth change, yet often you want to see on your screen as that depth change occurs…this is definitely something that has frustrated us in the past. With this Echo 550c unit not only do you get constant scanning but you get historical scanning so you can go back and look at the structure or fish you saw behind you.

The first thing I noticed with the Echo 550c is how clear and large the picture was – with a 5″ display area and a 640X480 color display everything immediately looked clearer with more certainty than I had been used to with other fish finder units.
Some of the other features of this great fish finder are:
- Smooth Scaling technology really makes your overall view of the bottom much more realistic and certain instead of choppy and fragmented
- Dual-beam transducer means you get both a 120-degree wide view to see well beyond the width of your boat and you get depth (up to 1900-ft using a second beam that is built for deep water…you get the best of both worlds
- Quick and simple installation with a quick mount for both the unit itself and the transom-mounting for the transducer.
When it comes to modern fish finders at an affordable price you will not find a better choice than the Garmin Echo 550c making it perhaps the current, most popular fish finder on the market today.
Here’s what one of the owner’s had to say about the Garmin Echo 550c:
Great unit does it all at the push of a button or if you want it will start when you start the boat. very good graphics double echo Garmin echo 550c Fishfinder for sharper v’s or they show you fish. I am buying another for my brother. (G Tancredi
