Helix 5 Chirp GPS G3 fishfinder

Humminbird Helix 5 CHIRP GPS G3 fishfinder from the new G3 series.

Updated simpler controls and new faster software. Excellent 800H x 480V, 5" 256-color screen with backlight. 

CHIRP DualBeam Plus sonar in Humminbird Helix 5 Chirp GPS G3 fishfinders provides the essential features you need, while SwitchFire sonar further enhances the image. With Chirp sonar imaging, you'll see even more different coverage areas, a clearer image, and easier to distinguish objects when there are several in one place.

Humminbird Helix 5 Chirp GPS G3 has a built-in GPS, which allows you to use maps of water bodies not only in Lithuania, but also around the world. You can mark your favorite fishing spots and detected objects and then view them on your maps at any time. It supports up to 47 routes (up to 20,000 points each). The route you are traveling is continuously recorded, so you can view it at any time without additional scanning (an empty card is required).

AutoChart Live feature - create your own maps or update existing ones.

These echo sounders also have the option to update the software.

 AutoChart Live feature – if you don't have a map of your desired body of water, don't worry. With Humminbird fishfinders that have the AutoChart Live feature, you can create maps yourself. Just turn on AutoChart Live and scanning will begin, and the newly created map will appear immediately on your screens. You can also add to and update existing maps. The internal memory of Humminbird fishfinders allows you to record up to 8 hours! You can also connect Minn Kota motors with the i-Pilot Link feature based on the depth contours of the maps you have created. 

 Chirp sonar - 3 scanning options with Chirp sonar, see the photo below. With Chirp sonar, you can easily distinguish between small, large, and trophy fish, and see what other sonars cannot show. Separation of individual objects – you will see where one object begins and ends and where another begins; several objects in one place are separated and do not merge into a single "cloud." You will see excellent images of your bait and fish. 

 DualBeam Plus sonar is also a dual-frequency sonar, which is found in all Humminbird fishfinders except for the PiranhaMAX series. Sonar frequencies and coverage: 200/83 kHz covers 20° and 60° respectively. 

 SwitchFire sonar - see what you want to see. You can turn on or off the scanning filters you want. Humminbird SwitchFire sonar echo sounders also have two main options - Clear mode and Max mode. 

Clear mode - objects on the water surface are filtered out, allowing you to see the largest objects in the water without any extraneous small disturbances nearby, as well as the bottom structure (picture on the left).

Max mode – you will see everything: the bottom structure, objects on the water surface, on the bottom, and throughout the water. You can also clearly see the movement of the bait (picture on the right).
