Overview
Built for anglers who want a broad live-sonar view without constant repositioning, this transducer is aimed at tracking fish and structure in real time while fishing bass, crappie, and other target species. Its 180-degree field of view and ultra-sharp resolution are designed to show fish, cover, and bottom detail with enough clarity to help you interpret what is happening below the surface. Forward XL, Down XL, and Scout XL modes let you adapt to changing conditions, and on-screen mode switching reduces the need for manual adjustment during the day. It is compatible with HDS Pro, HDS Live, HDS Carbon, and Elite FS units, and the kit includes a shaft/Scout mount and a 25-foot transducer cable.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- This is a transducer-only kit, so it requires a compatible display and system components to use.
- The 180-degree field of view is wide, but it is still a single-unit perspective unless you add a second ActiveTarget 2 XL transducer.
- Some of the most advanced functions, including the 360-degree Scout XL view, require pairing with an HDS Pro unit and a dual-transducer setup.
- The included 25-ft. transducer cable and mount support installation, but placement and setup still need to match your boat and electronics layout.
