Yesterday me and a buddy went to lake blackshear to set up my new helix 5 si and to fish a little. I got on the water and it was raining and windy. We got the helix set up thanks to my buddy chad. We went and started fishing in the channel. We didn't start catching any fish until about 3. They were running 20 feet down most of the afternoon. We ended up keeping 46 for the grease. Here are a few shots from the new bird and the fish I brought home. Water temp was 49.5.
That helix is worth the money. Nice screenshots and fish!
Looks like a good unit. I was heading to Blackshear either Friday or Saturday but with all this rain, guess I will go to Sinclair.
Nice unit and very nice fish.
Not many crappie fishermen would leave the lat/lon on the screen capture.
:banghead:banghead:yikes
Any "secret" spot isn't a "secret"...somebody else knows about it...especially at Blackshear.
Ive only owned 1 HB way back when they were black and white and didnt really like it. I've always been a Lowrance guy but with those screenshots it wouldnt take me long to switch over. Those look great. Plus when you step up to SI the Birds have the best deals IMO. Thanks for sharing the pictures and congrats on a great catch.:)
I don't care about the coordinates I was in the channel and the fish are all over those screen shots I didn't catch any at that time I just liked the shot. Also this unit has side imaging. I'm really impressed in the unit.
Very good fish and the Humminbird is tops.
i used nothing but HB . did try a Lowrance one time years ago didn`t like it .it went out and i sent tit back for repairs . could not be fixed parts not available .
sent several HB in and was repaired or replaced and back in a few days no charge.next will be a SI
Great shots! Good Job!
We like seeing those fish on screen and pictures----- thanks-----
For ease of use, affordability, and great customer service Humminbird is tops. If money is not an issue, I would love to have a new Garmin.
Nice job on the fish!! HB customer service is top shelf!
i just bough a HB 899 si anyone have any tips on what to set the settings on for a good all around default type setting?
Start with these... I use these to set up my 999Quote:
