  • I just recently got some new electronics for my bass boat and in this video I go over why I chose these units, how I use them, and what they are capable of showing you.
    Thanks so much and I wish you all the best!

    I so appreciate you putting this together! Couple notes: 1) It was over 3 minutes in, before we learned anything. 2) The glare was too much to get much value in the rest Keep posting! Lots of folks trying to learn what you are learning!

      Good feedback. He’ll learn and get better. People wanting to improve CZcams reviews and tutorials should watch Project Farm and Tamar (woodworking).

    Very nice video. I'm looking at this unit for my snowmobile for ice fishing, JUST for the GPS feature to get me two and from safely and to mark waypoints. How is the GPS feature on this? Thanks!

    Thanks for sharing,
    I have the Helix 5 , but what's the Hummingbird on the front of your boat called ? , other than a Hummingbird ...
    I would definitely get one if you can see your Bait on it , lol ...
    I have the Minn kota riptide, is it durable for a transducer on it ? ...
    Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated ...

      It's the same as his other Helix 5 Chirp, but with 'DI' added to the name (for Down Imaging)

      That’s correct. I went with DI in front

    What model Hummingbird 5 do you have on the front of you boat?

    • @jasonalmy1872
      @jasonalmy1872 Před rokem +1

      I believe he said it was the same as the one on his console, Helix 5 Chirp but with 'DI' added to the name (Down Imaging). Usually about $50 extra for the DI version.

    Can you save mapping on the Helix on lakes not on the LakeMaster chips?

    • @inlife_official
      @inlife_official  Před 3 lety

      I believe so, I have been able to use the mapping features on all the lakes I have fished since having it just as the unit came in the box.

  • @bbowen4629
    @bbowen4629 Před 3 lety +1

    I hear the Hummingbird has limited maps. I was told you need to purchase maps. Can you tell me if this is true?

    • @inlife_official
      @inlife_official  Před 3 lety

      I can tell you on the few lakes I have been on so far my out of the box gps maps have been good. I believe you can purchase lakemaster chart cards though and it will be better.

  • @elwoodanderson4149

    • @inlife_official
      @inlife_official  Před 3 lety +1

      The GPS works out of the box, but in order to have the lakemaster features like topographic charts you would need a card.

  • @divindave6117
    @divindave6117 Před 2 lety +1

    Hello. Now that you have had the Helix 5 for a little over a year... Do you still like it? And most importantly, what would you do differently if you could start over? Add lakemaster? Add side imaging? Are you happy with the stock transponders? Thank you.

    • @inlife_official
      @inlife_official  Před 2 lety

      Great question……the biggest thing I would have to say would be adding side-imaging. Not having it makes it difficult to find structure most of the time. Overall, I still really like it and think that they are great starter units!

    Thing I hate about this is that once you see a fish on it, more than likely it’s below the boat by than and now you can’t catch it
