I am looking for a GPS and would like to keep it under 300 dollars. Would be nice to get a fish finder combo, but not a must. Any recommendations for what kind I should buy? Thanks.

I have a Garmin Combo that is fantastic............I got it off of EBAY and saved a bundle.............GPS & Sounder are very accurate

Sounds great, I see that one doesn't have cables or antenna, are these expensive, hard to get?

If you up your spending limit to $400. You will have many more possibilities. It seems $399 it the entry on GPS/Sounder combos. I find the only time I use a GPS is at night or to mark fishing holes. I would also suggest to buy local. You get better support than buying off Ebay and your supporting the local community too.
