Its a simple, solid, very effective, practical little unit. Mine has been BEAT TO HELL AND BACK actually held together with tape and riveted aluminum bar with well over 100 lake winnipeg trips and it still works great LOL. One thing I'd recomend is an old car mat or chunk of foam to put underneath it. Specifically the bird35 is famous for giving Darren tantrums from the vibration noise it makes humming against the ice hahaha.
I bet you guys give em a beating up there! The freaking things take a slammin. Thanks for the tip. I will probably try to cut out a foam pad to size and glue it on the bottom or something. I can see that becoming a little annoying hah
Good video. Really helps explain the units features for the beginner. I’m also from Manitoba Canada and while this unit is affordable it is not cheaply made at all. Works well and helps catch fish.
Thanks bud! Definitely seems to be a lot of bang for the price! I know you boys up there put a real beating on the equipment in those conditions. Tight lines!
Nice looking product. Never knew how those devices worked. Thanks for the explanation. Hopefully I can do an ice fishing video this year, maybe 2 would be stretching it. Nice product, Jag.
damn good review Jag, Honestly a few hours ago I just mentioned to a buddy of mine about how to read those and I never looked into them so this was extremely helpful in learning that and about the models. Btw I think my toe is frost bit what does that have to do with this video, absolutely nothing, LOL Have a Happy holidays stay safe and healthy my friend.
Thabks dude but ummmm what about ur toe!?!? Lol buddy i dont need you losing one of your piggies hah. Hope that gets better soon brother. And thanks for the comment my boiiiiiiiiii
@@jagfishing836 😝😂🤣🥃🙌🇺🇸💙. It’s all good just wore only 400 Gram boots in 3 degrees The they day all day a bunch of stinging and all. I thing major lmfao. Hope we get ice soon I’m getting amped up see Darren’s been slamming them for a while now
Great review! I’ve been thinking about getting a flasher this year.... I’ve always been able to catch fish without one but could probably catch more with a unit of some sort. Awesome video Jag!
Sweet unit... This winter we will need to get out.. I've got a Marcum that I dont even use anymore I got tired of sending it back for repairs... I use a Lowrance now but I here good stuff about the unit you've got
Marcums are a real hit or miss man. My buddy has a lowrance and loves it. Im gonna need to find me a place with some good perch cause thats what i really want to get on through the ice
Thats what i would do, also good idea to just play around with it all see what works best for the water youre in at the time. Gain, zoom if u want to etc..
I am excited to use it. I will be fishing over 45 to 50 feet of water . The big cutthroat suspend in between 16 to 20 feet of water. Thank you for your video. It is the best one by far.
Ive never actually used the helix unit but from what i know its got some more advanced features. I dont want to comment too much on a unit i am not familiar with. What i can say is the ice 35 is absolutely amazing for the price. It has all the basic features you need for ice fishing. The screen is really big and bright and the battery life is insane (after 7 hours of use it burned about 15%) i would recommend the ice 35 over any base model from vexilar or marcum any day.
Damn man what an explanation. It’ll not only see a review for people but you literally just explained how to use the flasher for fishing. Nice job!
Thanks buddy, cant wait to take on the ice with it

Great review. I just ordered mine from Amazon. And now though the end of the year Humminbird is running a online $35 rebate on the unit.
Thanks buddy! Yea it rlly is a great unit for the price. And i want to say back when i got mine they had that rebate too lol
I watched a few videos about this you made it easier to figure out good job

That looks like an incredible unit,thanks for the review buddy 👊👍
Thanks for watching brother

Pretty sweet tool to put you on top of the fish . I never understood them now I do thanks for the review great job brother.
Thanks brother! I try to keep it simple, sometimes that what people are looking for
Thanks buddy, my brother just got one answered every question we had!
Thats awesome to hear! Im happy the video was able to shed light on the questions you had!
Great review! I love my Ice35
Its got nothing but great reviews
I’m down here in Georgia ....not much ice fishing down here. I need to go north and check it out
Ice fishing in canada is where its at. Them boys up north get some absolute monsters through the hardwater
@@jagfishing836 I’ve seen them....I’m scared my big butt would break through the ice.
@@FishingWithFitz haha i get it man i find even "safe" ice sketchy. Thought of going under terrifies me lol
That’s really cool man! Good review video!!
Thanks brother, hope all is well and everyone is staying safe
@@jagfishing836 We are! I hope the same for y'all!!
Like my HB 35 🎣👍
If I am fishing in 45 feet of water but the fish are about 15 to 20 feet down, do I use the 19 degree scope?
Thats what i would do, also good idea to just play around with it all see what works best for the water youre in at the time. Gain, zoom if u want to etc..
At what water depth do I use the 9 degree scope?
I never had to use it and deepest i went was about 40'...... id say a good ways deeper than that lol
I am excited to use it. I will be fishing over 45 to 50 feet of water . The big cutthroat suspend in between 16 to 20 feet of water. Thank you for your video. It is the best one by far.
@CleveBurns-z6z hey man i appreciate that. Good luck to ya!
Which one is better compare to Helix 5 ?
