Introduction
I’ve been fishing from rental boats at Los Vaqueros Reservoir a lot lately. It’s a tough place to fish as it is so I wanted to give myself an edge and get a fishfinder that could be easily mounted to the boat. I looked at Humminbird’s Fishin’ Buddy series which consists of four different models all designed with portability in mind.
- 110 Fishin’ Buddy – Down Sonar, 4.0″ 160Vx128H Display, 4 Level Grayscale
- 120 Fishin’ Buddy – Down and Side Sonar, 4.0″ 240Vx160H Display, 8 Level Grayscale
- 130 Fishin’ Buddy – Down and Side Sonar, 4.0″ 320Vx240H Display, 16 Level Grayscale
- 140c Fishin’ Buddy – Down and Side Sonar, 3.5″ 320Vx240H, 256 Colors
I was really intrigued by the side looking sonar and wanted a color screen as well so I chose the Humminbird Fishin’ Buddy 140c.
