Several Pros and Cons of the Fishin' Buddy Depth Finders

By Patrick Jennings


Do you wish a low expense Hummingbird fish finder? Usually, the fish finders that are not seriously high-priced don't have too several choices, but you'll find some models which can be really reliable in terms of locating fish. One example is, the Hummingbird fish finders from the Fishin' Buddy series might be categorized this way.

Therefore, if you want a fish finder with standard options, with less options, focused only on tracking fish, measuring depth and temperature, a Fishin' Buddy can be a viable selection. As a result, in this report I'm going to concentrate a bit on the advantages and disadvantages in the Hummingbird fish finders from the Fishin' Buddy series

Fishin' Buddy Hummingbird Fish Finders - Advantages

1. They are affordable. The most pricey Fishin' Buddy goes as much as about $260, and only due to the fact it has a color LCD screen. But in my personal opinion, you don't truly need to have a color screen on a little fish acquiring unit like this, so it could be a bit of a waste to go for the 140c type. If you're going for a Fishin' Buddy, I'd recommend the 120 or 110 models, which expense around $135 or so.

2. You do not must mount the transducer. Any Hummingbird fish finder, or should I say, any kind of fish finder comes using a transducer that should be connected in a way or one more to the hull of one's boat. A Fishin' Buddy has its transducer at the end of a plastic pole. All you need to do is attach the fish finder to the side of one's boat, placing the transducer within the water and you'll be prepared to track fish.

3. Fishin' Buddy fish finders have side scan. Properly, only the two superior models, the 120 and 140c. This function permits you to scan for fish under the water surface, in a cone having a moderate radius.

4. All function with AA batteries. As well as a full set of AA batteries should last for up to 30 hours.

Fishin' Buddy Fish Finders - Drawbacks

1. The plastic pole where the transducer is attached is not that lengthy, as well as the transducer must be submerged. So, if you are fishing from a boat having a greater hull, chances are you will not be capable of use your fish finder since the plastic pole using the transducer is also short. Anyway, these Hummingbird fish finders are designed for smaller boats, kayaks and so on.

2. Salt water corrodes them, so keep them dry.
