Humminbird HELIX 5 Chirp GPS G2 Portable Product Description
Picture this: you're chasing the perfect catch at dawn on a misty lake, or testing new waters from your kayak. The Humminbird HELIX 5 CHIRP GPS G2 Portable fishfinder turns those moments into triumphs with its crisp 5-inch display and powerhouse sonar that reveals fish like never before. Designed for anglers who refuse to stay docked, this portable powerhouse packs professional-grade tech into a grab-and-go package, letting you map spots, track waypoints, and zero in on structure without missing a beat.
Unlock Crystal-Clear Views Beneath the Surface
At the heart of the HELIX 5 is Dual Spectrum CHIRP sonar, spreading frequencies across low, mid, and high ranges for unmatched detail. Forget fuzzy returns—spot individual fish, bait schools, and bottom contours with precision that helps you drop lines exactly where they count. SwitchFire Sonar gives you control: toggle between Max Mode for every detail or Clear Mode to cut through clutter caused by thermoclines or waves. Dual Beam PLUS adds versatility, blending a narrow beam for pinpoint accuracy with a wide beam for broad coverage, matching your depth perfectly.
Navigate and Map Like a Pro
Built-in GPS delivers spot-on positioning, so your 2,750 waypoints, 47 routes, and 50 tracks stay reliable. Humminbird Basemap offers detailed charts of over 10,000 lakes and coastal areas, highlighting hazards, marinas, and depth markers. Dive deeper with AutoChart Live—drive your boat and instantly generate custom maps of contours, hardness, and vegetation. Eight hours of onboard recording means your hot spots are yours forever, savable to a micro SD card for later tweaks or sharing. Compatible with premium charts, it adapts to your style, from casual outings to tournament runs.
Portability That Packs a Punch
This isn't just a fishfinder; it's your portable fishing command center. The included shuttle mount, battery, charger, and suction-cup transducer make setup a breeze—mount it on any smooth surface in seconds. Soft carrying case shields it during transport, ideal for kayaks, ice fishing, or small boats. Waterproof construction and LED backlight ensure it thrives in rain, fog, or low light, powering through 1,500-foot depths with 4000 watts peak-to-peak output.
Real-World Wins for Everyday Anglers
Imagine threading through weed beds to find suspended walleye or marking a reef teeming with bass—users rave about how CHIRP separates targets others miss, turning slow days into limits. Precision GPS means no more guessing spots after a drift, and the intuitive keypad interface keeps your focus on fishing, not fumbling. Whether you're a weekend warrior or guiding clients, this unit boosts confidence and catches by revealing the underwater world in vivid 800x480 resolution color.
