Almost bought a Humminbird Helix 7 G3 to at BPS, but thought I’d see if anybody had any feedback, good or bad on these. Or if there’s something more recommended for the $500 range. I fish bass tournaments.

Humminbird HELIX 7 G3 Fish Finder Review;


These days, the best fish finders are loaded with all the tech the beginner and experienced angler could want. Now, you will no longer have to guess where the fish are hiding based on temperature, water conditions, or the weather. If you have a powerful tool like the Helix 7 by Humminbird, your days of playing the guessing game are long gone.

Our Verdict: The Helix 7 is one of the best-selling fish finders for a number of reasons. Not only is it highly accurate, but it also comes loaded with a ton of features including 360 imaging, down and side imaging, waypoint options, and compatibility with a variety of mapping programs. The controls are very intuitive, making the device beginner-friendly. Overall, this is the fish finder you’ll want to rely on when you’re out on the water in search of fishing hot spots, or in the ocean braving the waves and looking for your next big catch.

Advantages and Disadvantages:

Pros;

Highly accurate GPS
Save up to forty-five routes
Beginner-friendly
SD card slot
7-inch display screen
Drift alarm

In my opinion I believe that is a very good "FISH FINDER"...I would buy it..

Go on YouTube and down load around 8 or 10 videos and go through each video at least 3 times so you are very familiar with the settings and operations.

I looked at the humminbird locators at bass pro. I have used lowrance for years but liked the helix line. I started looking on line & found the locators much cheaper than bass pro. I bought 2 hummingbird helix 10 chirp & saved a bundle over bass pro prices. Same locators, same warranty.

Garmin 7sv I have the 9 and love it!! I bass fish tournaments too! If you can wait and save more I would! Get at least something with down, clear and side view. It’s a key tool in tournament fishing!!!!

Stay away from the Humminbird HELIX 7 G3 you need to look into the Garmin units instead as the Humminbird HELIX 7 G3 look good, but they are not to fishermen friendy and hard to learn. I have both the Helix 7 GPS and the Garmin and you cannot even see the Helix screen from 4 to 5 feet away but the Gamin if fine from far away and it is easy to use.

I bought a Helix 7 last year. It had GPS, down imaging, and sonar. I fish bass and panfish. I gave it to my brother and bought the same unit with side scan and auto chart live and Mega Chirp Sonar. Don't buy a fish finder without side imaging. You will regret it. The auto chart feature is a real plus for bass fishermen. I paid $700.00 at Cabala's plus $100.00 for a zero lines chip that would store infinite maps. $700 might be above your budget, but I made the mistake of buying a unit without those features and now I am out the money I paid for the 1st one. Down imaging and sonar only show you what is directly under your boat, side imaging will show out to 150 feet to each side. Way more effective. Look up side imaging and down imaging tutorials on Face Book, there are lots of them. Do this before you buy and then again after you make your purchase.
