Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 73Sv 7" Ice Fishing Bundle | GT10HN-IF Transducer | Portable Kit

🐟 7" ECHOMAP ice fishing bundle with GT10HN-IF traditional dual-beam sonar. Best for ice anglers who want proven CHIRP performance without live sonar complexity.

Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 73sv 7" Ice Fishing Bundle (Traditional ice sonar bundle)

The Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 73sv Ice Fishing Bundle is built specifically for hard-water anglers. It pairs the 7" ECHOMAP UHD2 73sv head unit with Traditional CHIRP + GT10HN-IF dual-beam ice transducer, in a portable carry case configuration ready to use on ice. This is the proven, field-tested ice fishing setup, GT10HN-IF ice transducer delivers CHIRP traditional sonar and ClearVü down imaging through the ice hole. No live sonar, no black boxes, no complexity, just a reliable unit that works every trip.

The GT10HN-IF is Garmin's purpose-built ice fishing transducer, designed to sit in an ice hole or on a pole-mount with fast target recognition and minimal setup. Unlike summer transducers repurposed for ice use, this one is engineered for the angles, depths, and conditions ice anglers actually face.

The 73sv head unit itself is the same 7"/9" UHD2 that bass anglers run on boats in open-water season. That means this bundle does double duty, mount it to your boat in summer (you'll need to buy a separate summer transducer like the GT54UHD-TM (CHIRP + ClearVü + SideVü)), and convert back to the ice transducer when hard water returns. Most ice anglers who buy this bundle end up using the head unit year-round rather than keeping it dedicated to ice.

Who This Ice Bundle Is For

This bundle is best for ice anglers who want CHIRP sonar performance without stepping into live sonar territory, and anglers just entering ice fishing who want a Garmin unit they'll use on open water in summer too. If you want live forward-looking sonar for ice, step up to the 73sv + Panoptix PS22-IF bundle (~$2,000) or 93sv + LiveScope Ice bundle (~$2,850).

Choose This If...

• You fish 7" screen territory, the 7" size is readable while sitting on a bucket in a shelter, without being unwieldy to carry from hole to hole.
• You want a year-round Garmin unit, not just an ice unit, the 73sv head unit does double duty in summer with a different transducer.
• You want a simple, reliable CHIRP ice fishing setup with no black boxes and no live sonar learning curve.
• You want LakeMaster VX ice-specific mapping, add a chip in the microSD slot for detailed contour maps of ice-fishing waters across the Midwest, Northeast, and Canada.
• Your budget is around $999, this bundle tier delivers traditional ice sonar bundle capability without the GPSMAP or Ultra 2 price step-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this bundle include live sonar?

No. This bundle uses traditional CHIRP sonar via the GT10HN-IF transducer, no live sonar capability included. The head unit (73sv) does support LiveScope and Panoptix via separate purchase if you decide to upgrade later.

Can I use the head unit on my boat in summer?

Yes. The ECHOMAP UHD2 73sv is the same head unit bass anglers run in open water. To use it on your boat in summer, you'll need a summer transducer like the GT54UHD-TM (CHIRP + ClearVü + SideVü) sold separately for around $400-$500. Most customers who buy an ice bundle end up using the head unit year-round.

What battery do I need?

A 12V battery is required, not included. We recommend a 7-12Ah sealed lead-acid (AGM) or lithium battery. Lithium holds voltage better in cold, costs more. AGM is proven, cheaper, heavier. Both work; lithium is preferred by serious tournament anglers.

Will LakeMaster VX work with this?

Yes. The 73sv accepts LakeMaster VX Premium (ice fishing-optimized lake contour cartography) via the microSD slot. LakeMaster VX is highly recommended for ice anglers, it includes 1-foot contour detail on most major ice fishing waters across Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, and Canada.

What's the difference between LiveScope and Panoptix?

LiveScope is forward-looking live sonar, see fish approaching your hole from up to 200 feet away. Panoptix PS22 is down-looking live sonar, see fish directly below your hole in real time. Both are live sonar, but they show different things. LiveScope is more versatile but costs more. Panoptix PS22 is simpler and less expensive but only shows what's directly beneath you.

Is this used in ice fishing tournaments?

Yes. Garmin ECHOMAP ice bundles are commonly used in major ice fishing tournaments across the Midwest, Canada, and the Northeast. Traditional CHIRP setups like this one remain popular among panfish tournament anglers and multi-species ice anglers who don't need live sonar.

Is this used on ice fishing rental trips or outfitter camps?

Yes. Ice fishing outfitters across northern Minnesota, Wisconsin, Manitoba, and Ontario commonly run Garmin ECHOMAP ice bundles for guest use. The portable carry case format makes for easy shelter-to-shelter transport.
