very disappointing,

This review is from: Humminbird 570 DI PT Fishfinder (Electronics)
This had the potential of being great. My home fishing spot is full of submerged stumps and many of transom mount transducers have bit the dust. The removable one was a plus. I also fish with several other friends and the portability was nice. However, the display was so bad you could hardly even see it in the sunlight. I would NOT recommend this because of the weak display. I promptly returned it.

This review is from: Humminbird 408120-1 Fishfinder 597ci HD DI Combo (Electronics)
I just finished installing the fish finder and took it out on the lake for the first time.Installation was pretty easy. I had to read and follow the instructions but I had no problems. I will say I found it very hard to drill holes in a perfectly good boat. On the lake, the GPS was great. The fish finder was very good also. It put me on fish, just not the right ones. The only complaint I have is the fish alarm won't go off unless I show the fish icon. Maybe I just haven't figured that out yet. Overall, it is everything I wanted and I am very satisfied.

Best bang for buck!,
This review is from: Humminbird 408120-1 Fishfinder 597ci HD DI Combo (Electronics)
I did a lot of research before buying this unit, I couldnt decide between this and the almost identical Lowrance Elite5 chartplotter unit. After reading countless reviews I chose the Hummingbird. The Lowrance has more color palete choices but the hummingbird had the old style sonar ability otherwise they seem the same to me. I am soo glad I chose this one! The downscan is awesome, truly showing great detail of structure and bottom, but its really hard to see fish and baitfish on it. The old style (seems like an updated version)shows fish and baitfish great and will mark them on the screen. This unit allows you to split the screen and use both sonar types at the same time, and its freaking awesome. The chartplotter is nice for navigating the big lakes but the included mapping is bad on small lakes showing just a blank white screen with your boat in the middle. But you can mark a waypoint for the dock to help you get back and view your tracks as you go to help navigate blindly. The coolest part of having a chartplotter is being able to mark locations of structure or fish zones and be able to return to them later without wasting time having to troll over dead water trying to find "that spot" again later in the day. Sounds crazy but this thing truly has changed the way I fish and made me a better fisherman! I just cant imagine what they can come up with next.
