Fishin' Buddy 140c

The Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 140c is a color portable unit, designed for small boats. Does not have GPS or navigational features, but it makes quite a nice tool for tracking fish.

It has a 3.5-inch display 256 color TFT, 320 x 240 pixel resolution. Although it does not have Side Imaging and Down Imaging, the screen shows great detail and you will be able to determine correctly where the fish are. Plus, you’ll always know the depth and water temperature.

The transducer is mounted at the end of an extendable pole, from 24-inch to 40-inch long. Therefore, even if you’re in a bigger boat, you’ll be able to reach the water with this device and use the Fishin’ Buddy 140c with no problem.

The sonar of the Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 140c has two operating modes, releasing a down beam and a side beam. The down beam is 34° wide, and provides a focused view of the bottom, showing the fish that come directly under the transducer. The side beam is narrower —> 10°, but provides less condensed returns. However, the side scan feature is quite great because you’ll know about where to cast, and you will know for sure that the fish where the SideFinding beam has spotted them.

This fish finder has a power output of up to 1000 Watts PTP, which makes it quite reliable for scanning waters up to 240 feet deep.

The Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 140c really is a flexible unit, you don’t have to install any wiring. You just attach it to your boat with its ergonomic clamp mount.

Fishin' Buddy 120

A bit more advanced and a few bucks more expensive than the Fishin’ Buddy 110, the Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 120 is also a low cost fish and depth finder, pretty useful to track fish.

The head unit of the Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 120 has a display a bit better than the 110 model, 8 level grayscale, which offer better clarity, with 240 x 160 pixel resolution. The dimension of the screen is the same though, 4-inch diagonal.

This fish finder has a Single Beam sonar, but it can be adjusted for a down scan or side scan. The side scan sonar has a beam of 10° and the down scan a beam of 34°, but pretty accurate. The side scan is pretty cool because it actually lets you know where to cast. Down scan is quite reliable up to 240 feet depths and side scan up to 120 feet.

The transducer is mounted at the end of a 24-inch pole, which comes with a clamp mount which can be used to fix the fish finder on basically any small boat, kayac or float tube. However, make sure you’re not sailing at a high speed, it might fall off. Plus, the returns of this Hummingbird fish finder are more accurate on lower speeds.

Although this fish finder doesn’t have GPS or any other navigational possibilities, offers great results in tracking fish. You will get an idea of their dimentions, the depth they’re swimming at, and of course, their location. Also, you will be able to make a good idea on how the bottom looks like, the water depth and temperature.

All in all, the Hummingbird Fish Finder Fishin’ Buddy 120 is a model designed for small boats, portable, focused on finding fish, and pretty much affordable.

It’s equipped with a small head unit, with a 4-inch display, 4 level grayscale, 160 x 128 pixel resolution. As you can see it has quite a basic screen but that’s far from being an impediment from providing you with accurate results when it comes to telling you where the fish are.

It can go up to 1000 Watts PTP, and it’s quite reliable in waters up to 240 feet deep.
