    Default Fish finder Help


    Looking to purchase a new finder. I don't troll and mainly single pole jig fish. With so much out of water structure now gone, I wouldn't mind having something to locate good underwater structure, etc. Not so schooled on modern technology. Mostly use mine now to make sure I don't run aground and not find fish.

    Cabella's has on sale. Any thoughts on any of these or the one's I have checked? Not looking for way overboard, but maybe just update to show clarity, steak beds, stumps, etc. $300 range.

    Thats what I have on the front of boat and I love it ( helix 5 with sonar and DI and GPS ). If you can spring some more bucks get the 7 instead of the 5.....bigger screen although the 5 is ok....bigger screen is always a plus.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    I just got a helix -5 with side and down image(on back) . nice little unit . Also put a bird 678 on front . this is a good unit if you use a hand control gps . check with Brian before you buy . Both were cheaper than anywhere I looked . Both are color units .Brian is a sponsor @ BBG marine .
