User questions & answers

Question:	Is it sensitive enought to see your line / jig/ lure
Answer:	Most of the time yes depending on if directly below and high sensitivity
Question:	Is this unit networkable
Answer:	It will network with your smart device via wifi.
Question:	The photos show both a blue and yellowish backlights on the down and sidescan. Is that configurable
Answer:	Yes you can change it
Question:	does it come with gps maps
Answer:	It does not come with GPS maps, or have the ability to add GPS maps via a SDcard. You can mark waypoints and tracks, but no traditional GPS mapping like with lake cards. It does however, have Quickdraw Contours with the Striker Plus version. What this does is create its own map showing contour lines like a topo map.

Clear Scanning Sonar Images

Garmin ClearVü scanning sonar gives you a nearly photographic, wide image of what passes below your boat. Garmin SideVü scanning sonar gives you a crisp, clear view of what lies off to each side of your boat. You clearly see structure, submerged objects and fish. Garmin CHIRP traditional sonar provides remarkable target separation. All this sonar technology is combined into 1 transducer to help you catch more fish.

GPS Fishfinder

The built-in, high-sensitivity GPS finds and maintains your position anywhere you go on the water. The GPS allows you to mark waypoints for different locations. So, if the fish are biting in 1 spot, you can mark it, and return to it on your next trip. Mark docks, boat ramps and other locations on the lake, and create routes back to them for your next trip. GPS also allows STRIKER Plus 7sv to show your speed on screen, so you can be sure you’re trolling at the right speed for the lure you’re using or in wake-controlled areas.

Built for You

The STRIKER Plus 7sv fishfinder makes fishing a breeze, and it’s built to work in any environment. The bright, sunlight-readable display gives you a clear view of what is below your boat, even on the brightest days. And the larger screen gives you a better view of what is happening below the boat. The intuitive user interface makes it simple to navigate to whatever feature you need, so you are ready for anything on the water.

STRIKER 4

3.5-inch CHIRP Fishfinder with GPS.

Navigate Easily with Waypoint Map

Since the STRIKER fishfinder series includes high-sensitivity GPS, you can see your position in relation to waypoints you have marked. Use the waypoint map to easily view, mark and navigate to locations such as brush piles, stumps and docks. It’s also a great tool for finding your way back to the boat ramp.

Check Your Speed on Screen

You can quickly and easily see your boat’s speed on the screen of your STRIKER fishfinder. It’s a great tool to make sure you are trolling at the right speed for the lure you’re using and for a particular fish species. It’s also a good way to tell if you are going the right speed in wake-controlled areas.

Take Your Fishfinder Anywhere

A portable kit is available to protect and carry your STRIKER fishfinder with GPS, so it’s perfect for kayak, canoe or ice fishing. It includes a sealed, rechargeable battery with charger, built-in transducer cable management and storage and suction cup transducer mount and float.

Experience the Clarity of CHIRP

STRIKER 4 fishfinder includes a Garmin CHIRP (77/200 kHz) transducer, which provides a visibly higher level of clarity and detail for fish and structure than traditional 77/200 kHz transducers.

Instead of sending just 1 single frequency, CHIRP sends a continuous sweep of frequencies, ranging from low to high, then interprets them individually upon their return. Since the frequencies provide a wider range of information, CHIRP sonar technology can create crisper fish arches with greater target separation.

You also can upgrade to high-performance Garmin CHIRP technology, which provides crystal-clear sonar images with even more remarkable target separation and resolution from shallow to deeper depths. For better fishing, bottom contours are more visible, even at higher speeds, and signal noise can be suppressed at greater depths to provide a more timely interpretation of what’s below.

User questions & answers

Question:	From the description, the unit comes with Navionics+. Is this true
Answer:	Navionics Gold Compatible from what the Hummingbird site says, meaning you can put the Navionics cards in this unit for the extra chart info and capabilities but in typical Navionics form, they rake you over the coals for it. The Uni-map base maps are quite good from what I have seen from playing around with it in the west central Florida area. Your area may vary because of the amount of info that has been collected on it. One thing to point out is the Base maps here are better than most base maps other companies offer and there is no need to buy the uber expensive map cards from Navionics for your average weekend fisherman or pleasure boater. The Navionics stuff is very specialized....My experience level: 5 years as a Marine Electronics installer and Business owner for 10 years, Raymarine, Garmin, NEMA KVH Certs and 3 FCC Electronics operation and repair licenses.
Question:	does this unit display speed
Answer:	Yes, it does via the GPS.
Question:	Does this model have sidescan as well as downscan imaging
Answer:	No look for the CHIRP SI GPS G2 model
Question:	Does the unit come with transducer
Answer:	It comes with the transducer and flip up mount and the control head mount that rotates up and down. Hope this helps.

Humminbird HELIX 5 G2 Series Fish Finders

There’s no such thing as 'too early' or 'too far.' High expectations go with the territory. The HELIX 5 Series answers the call with an uncompromising widescreen color display. Available on select models, Humminbird CHIRP Digital Sonar and Imaging Sonar reveal the lake bottom, while GPS mapping, AutoChart Live and Humminbird Basemap show you the way.

Feature for feature, it has what it takes to win the day. Do you? No doubt.

Includes transducer and mounting hardware, power cable and gimbal mounting bracket.

2D Sonar

If your goal is to locate and see fish more clearly, start here. Humminbird’s 2D sonar offerings are far from two-dimensional. Whether you’re fishing freshwater lakes, coastal waters or the ice, you’ll find the right solution for your environment and prey.

SwitchFire

SwitchFire lets you control the way your returns appear. With two display modes—Max Mode and Clear Mode—you can choose how much detail, including fish, structure and thermoclines, you want to see or un-see.

Dual Beam

With a wide beam for more search area or a narrow beam for more precision, DualBeam shows you fish and the bottom. DualBeam Plus lets you combine the two beams for even more detail.

Digital CHIRP

CHIRP stands for 'Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse.' That’s a fancy way of saying it can show you fish that other forms of 2D sonar can’t. How’s that? CHIRP scans the water for fish similar to the way the seek function on your truck’s radio scans the airwaves for FM stations. By covering a wide range of frequencies, CHIRP produces more accurate, more detailed returns of fish, structure and the bottom.

Imaging - It's all in the details

Amazing Humminbird Imaging sonar shoots high-frequency beams below the surface to reveal structure, cover and contours with crystal clarity.

Side Imaging - Nowhere to Hide

Gain an unprecedented, side-to-side perspective on the world below the surface with Side Imaging. In an instant, the ultra-thin beam scans the area to the left and right of your boat location. The return image for each slice is then added to the images taken immediately before and after to build an incredible view of the lake bottom. (image displays MEGA Side Imaging)

Down Imaging - Look Out Below

Get a fish-eye’s view of what’s happening below your boat with Down Imaging. These incredible images are created with high-frequency sound waves emitted in ultra-thin slices. The sonar returns from these waves produce a 'portrait.' As you patrol the water, you’ll watch timber, brush, bridge pilings, rocks and any other structure pop with stunning detail. (image displays MEGA Down Imaging)

Built-In Basemap - Ready to fish, right out of the box

We’ve enhanced our standard Basemap to deliver more detail and a superior angling experience. The Humminbird Basemap is built into all SOLIX Series and GPS-equipped HELIX Series G2/G2N models. Based on freshwater data from LakeMaster and NOAA, the most-trusted saltwater source, these accurate maps provide you with a clear view of underwater terrain. Identify buoys, daymarkers, hazards, marinas and countless other navigation aids and points of interest with our comprehensive icon system. You’ll also see contours, depth markings and, for coastal areas, spot soundings. On the water, confidence is key. And the Humminbird Basemap delivers.

Autochart Live - Create your map-sterpiece (On select models)

Build richly detailed maps of your favorite fishing spots in real time with Humminbird AutoChart Live, available on the SOLIX Series and all GPS-equipped HELIX Series models. Map the water as you drive the boat, with eight hours of built-in recording time. Once your map is live, view it with vegetation, bottom hardness and depth contours to locate the best fish-holding areas. Also, use it with i-Pilot Link Follow and other patented Humminbird LakeMaster features. The future of digital charting has arrived. Better get on board.

Navigation - Built-In GPS

Get unparalleled GPS technology out of the box. Many Humminbird fishfinders have our powerful Precision GPS/WAAS receiver built right in and provides fast position fixes accurate within 2.5 meters. For those models without it, there are several options: Add the Humminbird Precision GPS/WAAS receiver for permanent GPS capability on your boat. Use Humminbird’s adapter and the NMEA output on your own handheld GPS unit, or use Humminbird’s InterLink to allow two fishfinders to access one GPS receiver.

User questions & answers

Question:	will the 78s do loran to gps conversions
Answer:	No. I don't know of any conversion programs
Question:	Does the basemap that comes with it show the marine topography
Answer:	No, this device is meant for land activities not marine although it display your location, distance, etc.
Question:	If I program a waypoint, does it show a "path" and then clearly indicate where I am relative to the desired path
Answer:	Yes -- think of it as setting a MOB (man overboard). Once you start tracking the MOB, a path is outlined as to where you are relative to the original mark, plus the bearing back (or reciprical) and distance back to the mark. The same is for using a waypoint. Once the waypoint is set, you can go to it using FIND button, click on the waypoint, hit GO and you get the same path shown plus the reciprical bearing and distance.
Question:	Does this gps come preloaded with coastal basemaps or do you need to purchase separately
Answer:	The gps 78s come with The microSD card ?
Question:	Hi, does the product come in its original box
Answer:	Comes in a Garmin Refurbished unit Box
Question:	What SD Card is used
Answer:	Normal
Question:	what maps does this come with and how do you get additional maps
Answer:	Do need additional detail map
Question:	Is this accurate enough to measure property lines
Answer:	I used mine for that purpose, but realizing it will be accurate to about 20 feet, so it will not be absolute.

Fishing spots made easier!

What is the depth, bottom contour and water temp? How grassy is it?

Just cast out your Deeper Smart Sonar PRO+ to get instant depth and water temperature readings. Once you are retrieving your Deeper PRO+, it pinpoints the features carp love, like humps, depressions and marginal shelves. You will see the greenery and its thickness. Deeper, also, helps you to discover if the bottom is hard or soft, with gravel or silt. As the Deeper PRO+ is a sonar, you can even locate the carp themselves. So, if you’ve baited an area, you can monitor if the fish are staying there or moving elsewhere.

All the information at your disposal to catch that perfect carp you have always wanted.

Cast

Know the depth of any spot in an instant just by casting out - it’s quicker and causes less disturbance than using a marker float.

Scan

Reel in your Deeper PRO+ slowly and steadily to locate different features and vegetation areas, and to see bottom contour, hardness and consistency.

Target

Find out how the depth changes in different spots and locate those shelves and humps the carp hang around.

Map

All scans and maps can be saved to Lakebook, Deeper’s bathymetric management platform. By seeing and knowing more, you’ll be able to find hot spots faster, locate target species better and map it all for later retrieval and analysis.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will navionics maps work in this
Answer:	Nwvuonics will work with this unit. However. If you have ipilot link and wish to use the follow the contour feature or other link features you will need a lakemaster card from humminburd
Question:	I have a Terrova with the universal sonar 2 transducer built in. Is the Helix 7 compatible with my transducee
Answer:	The Helix 7 is compatible, but the Helix 7 with the Mega DI will not give the DI high resolution with the DI transducer.
Question:	Does this come with the teansducer
Answer:	If it is cho then no that stands for. Control head only.
Question:	What ice fishing pack works with this helix 7 g
Answer:	A mind game with the transducer
Question:	Please i need a trasceduser cable replacement. How much will it cost me
Answer:	Usually we didn't sell the transducer alone. If you already bought fish finder from us before, please contact us through amazon message and we will give you the offer for the transducer alone.
Question:	It works in salt water
Answer:	Yes,this Lucky fish finder can work well in salt water. It is suitable for ocean、lakes and rivers. Hope this helps.
Question:	can you mount the transistor in side the kayak
Answer:	Usually people will fix the transducer on the hull of the kayak (the outside). Because the transducer can only be working when it touches the water.
Question:	Does it work well for ice fishing
Answer:	Yes it works well for ice fishing, although you must drop the transducer below the ice in order for it to read depth accurately. I also found that it has the potential to mis-detect large tube jigs as a fish, but I actually don’t mind that as it tells me how deep my bait is. I also use this with my kayak mounted with the bracket, so I get double duty. Battery life is fantastic even in below zero temps. I’ve been out with it on several outings below freezing and I’m still on the same set of batteries! I would recommend this product.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this also tell you the water depth
Answer:	Yes, it shown water depth and fish depths, fish size..but still not sure about the accuracy of this device..
Question:	How does this connect to phone/tablet: bluetooth or wifi
Answer:	Bluetooth
Question:	There aren't any reviews or questions. Anyone have any pros/cons to offer
Answer:	When fishing through 14 inches of ice this weekend in a narrow 6 inch hole it had some trouble accurately getting readings. I suspect that would be a common issue with flashers through the ice though, next time I will attempt to submerge fully to see if it makes a difference, I was not prepared this time. When Centered in the hole it would work, so I drilled a second hole and let the Garmin freeze in center and all was good.
Question:	Can you do a split screen of the ice flasher and the 2D sonar at the same time
Answer:	No, that is not currently possible. It's one or the other

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this Garmin fish finder comes installed with maps (Marine maps
Answer:	There is no way to put any maps on this unit but it does have storage to make your own maps. It has a mapping feature so you can map the depths of your favorite lake. The specs says it will hold 1 million acres of lake maps. Granted, you have to be on a boat and troll to do the mapping but it does work and it works rather well.
Question:	For in hull transducer mounts for a fiberglass boat, Garmin suggested putting the transducer in a container full of antifreeze. Any other methods
Answer:	I can’t speak to fiberglass as I use mine on kayak. However I do use my transducer shooting thru hull attached with duct seal that forms a reservoir around transducer and then I add water. That works perfectly! Duct seal is $3 at Lowe’s or Home Depot.
Question:	What's the difference between this and the "garmin striker 4 with transducer, 3.5" gps fishfinder with chirp traditional transducer
Answer:	This one has a feature where you can contour maps the bottom of any lake or river you're in.
Question:	how many holes do i need to drill to install the transducer
Answer:	Don't drill holes in your boat. Find an old 3/8-1/2" plastic cutting board and cut a 4x4 piece out of it and using 3m sticky tape mount it to the transom and use short screws to mount the transducer to the piece of cutting board. Did that back in 1979 and has never come loose.
Question:	Whats the maximun depth that it can read
Answer:	It’s in the description I believe. Otherwise YouTube has this information
Question:	Will this work in shallow waters? What is the minimum depth it will read accurately? Read a review where it was said to lose use under 10 feet
Answer:	I know from experience it can read depths as shallow as 1 foot but I don’t know the exact limitations or specs. The problem that renders this and any fish finder useless in shallow water is the amount of vegetation and its direct proximity. In shallow water with dense vegetation reaching the surface you’re most likely only going to see screen noise displayed which may effect the abilities to properly gauge water depths. If there is no vegetation and the ground is of solid structure then this will work fine in water 10’ or less.
Question:	Can the transducer be mounted on the trolling motor
Answer:	Yes it’s come with all the hardware needed to install you might have to change some things depending on your trolling motor
Question:	Will I be able to see the screen with polarized sunglasses
Answer:	Yes you can because I am using as well the polarized glasses with a light yellow tint
