Thread: New Humminbird 797 C2 Si

Looks like a hefty tax return from Uncle Sam this year 2400 smackers. Oh yes ,,and that other little check that Bush is sending everyone around 900 I think. Now I'm looking at another new toy!! to the tune of 829 and some change!! May just have to go for it in a few months.. Geezzz I hate this fishing hobby!!!!! Costs way to much money!!! Was puting up some jigs that I got from Crappieday last night and the wife asked me if I just collected stuff like that or was I going to catch any fish!! If I get the new sideview I will just tell her it was only around 100 to 200 bucks. She will never know. She always says she she likes her fish in squares and Publix allways has some in the seafood case!! As we were eating 2 pounds of Lake Weiss fillets cooked in beer batter last night....She is always joking

sounds like my spousal unit...why do you need 4+ tackle boxes of jigs to fish for crappie? It would be cheaper for us to buy the fish.

thats when I tell her, well look at the othr side...I could be hanging around in the bars chasing loose women like most of your friends husbands, or I can be fishing... your choice.

Then its always...Honey, do you need anything from BPS?

if a woman can have 15 pair of shoe why can`t i have 15 50ds and reels . 2 or 3 jewlery boxes full of jewelery why can`t i have 2 or 3 boxes of jigs :D
i onley have 3 pair of shoes . no jewlery

a-men at papasage!
let us know how you fair with the new sonar!

Laser, i'll trade ya my color c lector for that 797!

When you wanna swap?

gosh darn,,,,I already have one other wise I would trade in a heartbeat

Just tell us how to get a refund lol, I ain't gettin diddly squat.

Don't say too much my wife reads this site too !!!!!!! ( I told my wife this was cheeper than raceing... as long as she goes with me most of the time its ok...I still fish too much !!!!!

just ordered one online from Humminbird.999.99
Prices were really about the same with everyone. Figure for a 100 bucks difference I got the newest model 407220-1. All the other online sites have a different model number 406770-1 but still say brand new. I'm thinking the difference is the GPS antenna is internal and not the white hockey puck that I have to mount somewhere.
I can't wait to try it out over at lake weiss scanning those docks and river ledges. Should help my catch and not catch ratio!!
