hotsky Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I have a chance to pick up few years old Hummingbird PirhanaMax 150 Portable fishfinder. Guy says he never used it. Weather it's true or not assuming it works ok how much would you pay if you can get one new for $130+tax? Edited January 29, 2013 by Gray_Wolf

Rich Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Yeah definitely, more expensive gear always brings success
Rich Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 x2... or quit smokin Imagine how much more money I'd have if I had a heroin addiction to quit!
hotsky Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Posted January 29, 2013 I'm looking for a portable unit, new 176i model looks pretty cool but about $200 (online). He's asking $90 btw...
moxie Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 Yeah definitely, more expensive gear always brings success hehehe. No but it often amazes me how a little patience can often provide other opportunities and better options.
Burtess Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 I price matched the 160 portable at CT (with LeBaron price) for $119 + tax. I bought it with the thought that since the portable pack with battery is around $140 by itself so if the actual unit didn't work well I would just sell it cheap, keep the portable pack, and upgrade to a better sonar. I tried it out this past weekend. Works great and can clearly see a 1/64oz tear drop with 2 maggots on it in 20ft of water. It even marks a half dozen maggots slowly sinking to the bottom after chumming the hole! How much better are the more expensive units? Burt
asdve23rveavwa Posted January 29, 2013 Report Posted January 29, 2013 $80 tops, considering Juli picked one up at Walmart three years ago for $99.
