788ci July 30, 2010 UpKnorrth 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I fish Lake Michigan for salmon. I was trying to decide between the Lowrance HDS5 and the Humminbird. After reading the reviews I decided to go with the 788ci. Amazon had the best price, it was delivered within a couple days.
It is easy to use, works great at marking fish and even marks the thermocline when set to Switchfire mode.
I broke the transducer bracket during installation and Humminbird sent me a new one, no charge.
The chartplotter works great, the base map is pretty detailed and I do not think any additional mapping software is needed.
My only pet peeve is you cannot zoom into a certain depth of water, say between 20 and 50 feet if you are in 100 foot of water. It always reads off the bottom up. At least if you can do it I have not figured out how.
The transducer cord could be a couple feet longer too. I have a 21 foot boat and it was just long enough, a few more inches would have been nice.
Great fishfinder July 11, 2010 Bob 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I love my new Humminbird 788ci fishfinder. I have used it three or four times now trolling for Kokanee. I wasn't sure that I really needed GPS for fishing in a lake. I knew I didn't need it to find my way back to the boat ramp, but it is so easy to mark a spot where you catch fish or see a lot of fish and then come back to that spot that I wouldn't want to fish without the GPS now. The fish ID works great also. You can see how many fish are there, what their depth is and realitive size. It is so much fun to use that my fishing buddies want to drive the boat so they can watch the screen which has great color and is easy to see all the details even in bright sunlight. I use the split screen with GPS and fish ID screen most the time. It is easy to switch back and forth between screen views with a push of a button.

I purchased this unit for my small boat. Convience of not having an external antenna & some place to put it. So far I've taken the unit out on 2 trips. The GPS features are great ! (No more hand held for me) But I have yet to get the unit to find the bottom or any fish (I'm sure it's user error) Humminbird support it the way to go if you don't understand the book fully. Unit & buttons are user friendly. This unit will do a lot when I get familuar with it. The one drawback that I have with it is: it sucks the juice out of my little battery. (I fish out of a skiff and therefore try to stay as light as possible) And the 25 hp 4-stroke Yamaha I use doesn't have charging capabilities. So I'm going to a larger battery.

Arrived on time and installed easily. I've only used it once, and haven't had a chance to use it with the Navionics softwear because my son has the boat at his house. If it all integrates well, it might be a 5 star rating. I would reccomend it.
