Humminbird SmartCast RF25 1.25-Inch Waterproof Fishfinder Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've now had this little guy for a year and with the exception of the green transducer dying in the first week (replaced immediately by Humminbird), it works like a charm. It's been in both frest and salt water repeatedly without a hiccup. I've had it in as much as 60 feet with fairly good resolution, discerning between weeds, rocks and fish
well for the price. Great little unit for the money, for sure-especially if you have a kayak like me. You won't be disappointed.

The Humminbird Smartcast RF25 is a fishfinder designed for the recreational angler ready for a step up from traditional fishing and offers an unmatched level of convenience. This fishfinder may be small, but it has plenty of built-in capabilities, and can provide you with the ultimate in portable sonar in a simple, rugged package that mounts directly on your fishing pole.
The Smartcast RF25 utilizes a traditional, single-beam 90-degree sonar to deliver ultra-wide coverage equal to twice the water depth up to 120 feet deep. Vital information is displayed on a high-visibility, 1.25-inch display with 48x32 lines of resolution, in a true STN grayscale that delivers clearly better images of the bottom, fish and structure. The large, easy-to-see digital readout is powered by an included Lithium 2450CR watch battery, and features a pulse backlit display for viewing during fading light conditions, as well as a time and date function. This system is designed to be waterproof, and has a 150-foot operating range allowing you to easily travel around without losing your signal.
The Smartcast RF25 comes with a waterproof, dual-channel RSS (remote sonar system), which given the readout's A/B option allows for the use of two RSS sensors in the same area. The RSS includes water surface temperature, typically lasts for 500 hours of in-the-water usage, and allows you to purchase replacements that are available on the manufacturer's web site, as well as at your local tackle dealer and major outdoor retailers. The Smartcast RF25 features one-touch menu navigation that allows you to easily control FishID+, depth range, fish alarm, and sensitivity, as well as Wet Switch technology that maximizes battery life by automatically shutting down when the Advanced RSS is out of the water. For those who like to travel light and go fishing anywhere and everywhere, this system is the perfect companion.
What's in the Box Advanced remote sonar sensor, rod mounted display, 2450CR battery, 3 different mounting sleeves, and operation manual.

Garmin Fishfinder 140 with 4.7-Inch Display and Dual-Beam Transducer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I didn't expect much for the price I paid, but was pleasently surprised. The screen is very easy to read, and the automatic features actually work without being fine tuned. Far and away the nicest feature about this unit is the dual beam transducer. It has great accuracy not only under the boat, but off to the sides. Lastly the option of mounting the transducer to the trolling motor without having to buy an adapter was icing on the cake.
