Mainly I wonder if the side imaging is worth it for kokanee and do they work well in deep water like Flaming Gorge.
I don't think you can go wrong with a helix 10
I have a solix gen 1 and a solix gen 2 I had to buy the gen 2 so I could get a mega 360
I like the transducer that came with the gen 1 better for fishing for kokanee because I can see the downrigger ball better
this snapshot is strawberry using the solix gen 1 look at the bottom you can see what 75-95 Khz you can see the down rigger balls good here
the other side is 175-225 if you see fish here they are under the boat.

this is the gen 2 transducer which may be the same transducer that comes with the helix gen3 or 4 I would hafe to chack that out
I have 3 settings this is only one of them. 140-200 KHz with this transducer you don't see the downrigger ball as good. this is at deer creek
I had four downriggers down. but this is a great transducer jigging for big lakers down 100 feet.
