Humminbird 35 Flasher?

[fishn_w_allday]

Can anyone tell me (through personal experience) how the Humminbird 35 flasher performs? Is it a good alternative to a Vexilar or Marcum?

Thanks in advance for your help....

I have the Humminbird 45 which is basically the same except for the LCD screen and a little more power. I used it all of last season and it performed great. I was able to catch a lot more fish.
I do not have any experience with Vexilar or Marcum just what I read about them when doing my research last year.
Hopefully this helps.

Thanks for the information...kind of which way to go...price is somewhat a factor so as the reason I'm leaning toward Humminbird.

Thanks again and good luck this season!

No experience with a Humminbird flashers...

However FWIW we have Vexilar FL 12s and they're great. Here's a link so you can view informational videos on these flashers. IMHO well worth the investment if you like to hard deck fish like us. I'm no techno-geek but if I can figure these out anyone can. Biggest thing is the tranducer you want to use. These videos in the link will explain them I believe.

Also just a K2 recommendation again FWIW...the very soft bite when ice fish'n one must have a quality spring bobber so here's another link...IMHO these are the best on the market!!!

Best of luck on your Flasher selection but well worth it IMHO...with a the Flasher and a quality bite indicator we caught grundles of fish last year.

I bought one early this year at Sportsman's Warehouse for $299 and it works great. Did a bang up job at Fish Lake last February. It doesn't have the digital read out that the 45 model does and a couple other features but if I can figure it out, anyone can. The battery lasts a long time and the transducer is very sensitive. The entire unit fits nicely into an empty kitty litter bucket, too.

i just got onr and it is sweet! I was deciding between vex and marcum and went with the 35 I like the big screen, it easy to see from a distance! sometimes it does seem to make alot of noise from vibrations. I just move it and it shuts up! battery will easily last a day! but I didn't like how I had to put it together its not hard just didn't want to! wanted to check it out right away.
