With a dual-frequency CHIRP setup, this transducer provides broad bottom coverage at low frequencies and sharp target detail at high frequencies, helping you locate and identify fish, structure, and bottom features even when you’re moving quickly. The bronze housing and robust fairing are built to withstand demanding saltwater conditions, while the depth and water-temperature sensors provide valuable context for choosing where to fish and how to adjust your setup for different species and conditions. Designed for boats 25' (8 m) and larger with fiberglass or wood hulls, the B265LH is well-suited for deep-water canyons, seamounts, and offshore trips.
