The ELITE FS 12 with Active Imaging 3-in-1 Transducer (AUS/NZ) is the proven Lowrance fishfinding system reimagined for real-world fisheries. This 12-inch, high-clarity touchscreen puts the full Lowrance toolkit at your fingertips—from real-time fish tracking to ultra-detailed mapping—so you can spend more time fishing and less time searching.
What makes this system different—and why it matters on the water
- ActiveTarget 2 Live Sonar ready – See exactly where the fish are in real time. Watch their movement as you reel your lure, helping you decide in the moment whether to adjust depth, speed, or lure type. Real-time feedback reduces guesswork and boosts catch opportunities.
- Active Imaging 3-in-1 sonar – A single display that combines CHIRP sonar with SideScan and DownScan Imaging for unmatched clarity of structure and cover. Pairing these views on one screen lets you differentiate fish from vegetation, rock, or timber with enhanced confidence.
- Active Imaging HD 3-in-1 when you need it – For deeper or more complex water, the HD option delivers even sharper fish arches and finer structure detail—requiring the S3100 module to unlock the extra fidelity.
- FishReveal onboard – A Lowrance-exclusive feature that overlays fish targets on DownScan Imaging, making it easier to distinguish fish from their surroundings at a glance.
- Preloaded C-MAP Discover Onboard charts with the option to expand via C-MAP, Navionics and more. Navigate confidently through inland lakes and coastal waters with high-resolution, reliable maps.
- Advanced mapping tools – C-MAP Easy Routing and Navionics Autorouting help plan efficient routes and trips, so you can optimize your day from launch to landing a keeper.
- Genesis Live onscreen mapping – Build your own high-definition bathymetry in real time to identify new fishing hotspots like ledges, drop-offs, and contours unique to your local waters.
- Seamless integration – Built-in wireless, NMEA 2000, and Ethernet connectivity simplify data sharing between devices, transmit sonar imagery to other displays, and keep your network rock-solid on the water.
- Full touchscreen control – Direct, intuitive control of compatible trolling motors (Recon and Ghost) and Power-Pole anchors, allowing rapid adjustments without fumbling for switches.
- Compact, capable footprint – The Elite FS family combines the power you expect with a straightforward install, giving you a feature-rich system at a more approachable price point.
Real-world use scenarios
- Structure-first hunting: Run SideScan and DownScan to reveal brush piles, drop-offs, and submerged stumps, then drop ActiveTarget 2 to watch how fish react to your lure in real time.
- Chasing moving schools: Use Active Imaging HD to chase birds and bait balls, then switch to CHIRP to verify targets and size up schooling fish without leaving the map view.
- Precision mapping on unfamiliar waters: Rely on preloaded C-MAP Discover Onboard charts for shorelines and contours, enhanced by Genesis Live for custom hot spots as you explore.
