Some skepticism existed when Garmin released the original STRIKER series a few years ago. These were, and are still, stripped-down versions of the Echomap UHD series. Would anglers want a fish finder with updated sonar capabilities but no maps or data storage?
Turns out, yes, STRIKER proved to be an excellent value to anglers and is a popular fishfinder series. With the release of Vivid, Garmin has made a significant transducer update, along with slick new color palettes for each model. So, we set out to see if the new STRIKER Vivid series is as good a deal as the original.
