I first thought about doing this Humminbird 1197 review shortly after buying it last March. But I really wanted to get to know how to use it and learn the ins and outs of this machine before writing about it. I’ll tell you right up front that I’ve owned and used fish finders since I was a teenager back in the late 70′s and early 80′s. They have sure come a long way since those old Lowrance whirling thingamajigs!
Thanks for stopping by Fish Finders Guide. I hope to help you get the most out of your fish finders,that’s the reason behind this whole website. To share what I’ve learned over the years using fish finders of all types and shapes. From nearly every manufacturer in just about every conceivable configuration!
Fish finders are not getting any easier to use. If you’re not a computer nerd, then chances are some of the functions are Greek to you. And that’s unfortunate! Today’s fish finders are so sensitive and accurate it’s scary. Some of the units are so sensitive, you can watch a Walleye eat your jig in 60 feet of water!
