landry Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 I upgraded the ducer for $60. It was easy to mount on my aluminum and needed no adjusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCTFisher9120 Posted March 7, 2016 Report Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) I bought a Helix 5. I don't find DI useful at all and SI isn't what I was hoping for. I wouldn't bother with them. JMO. Need the 7 or 9 to appreciate the SI/DI. The smaller screens make it very tough to see the structure. I picked up the Helix 7 SI GPS this year. Can't wait to use it, haven't had problems visually fishing and targeting structure but the deep stuff I want to learn, bottom hardness finding those points and curves in deep weedlines etc. Go for the 7, price is right and gives the the bigger screen to see the details! Don't listen to the guys saying it doesn't work right and it's not worth it. A basic fish finder isn't worth the $$ in my opinion. If you want depth and temp go basic but once you dial in the SI settings your golden. Here are some links to get you started learning. I'm in "learning mode" too but once you play with the settings your golden. MTBF Edited March 8, 2016 by MikeTheBassFisher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manitoubass2 Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Once I fished with my friend that uses both, and he showed me how it worked....SOLD Do you need this tech? No Will you benefit from having it? Big time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
