HDS Highest-Definition Broadband Fishfinding

Incredible and award-winning, exclusive Broadband Sounder digital technologies is now inside all HDS sonar models for the best Lowrance fishfinding ever! As the vital link between the transducer and your HDS display, Broadband is proven to find more fish with greater sensitivity, higher definition and more display clarity with superior target separation in all cover, in thermoclines and in all water conditions.

Less Noise, More Targets
With Lowrance Broadband digital signal processing software, noise goes way down and sensitivity goes way up. The result: Ultimate target discrimination with incredible high-definition separation of those distinctive Lowrance �fish arch� targets from structure and other fish!

Crystal-Clear Clarity
With advanced digital filtering, Broadband vastly improves at-a-glance display clarity, sharpens bottom images and paints a much cleaner picture of targets that others will miss or show poorly.

Greater Shallow-Water Coverage
To cover even more water, Broadband automatically adds 83 kHz operation to a Lowrance 200 kHz single-frequency transducer. At 83 kHz, you get full 120-degrees of wide-angle coverage with greatly enhanced definition of fish arch targets.

Incredible Deep-Water Performance
Broadband sounding is serious electronics when the hunt is on for fish in any deep water weather condition. Even at higher boat speeds, Broadband keeps a bottom lock at depth, with exceptional targeting of fish arches on the bottom, around wrecks and other seabed structure. And when used with a high-power transducer, strong bottom locks and water column detail reach down thousands of feet!

Expandability at No Extra Cost
For added value, HDS Broadband-equipped models can turn an HDS GPS Chartplotter (or GlobalMap chartplotter with yellow ethernet connector) into a powerful combination fishfinder/chartplotter with complete sonar graph control when networked by Lowrance Ethernetworks.

Lowrance HDS-5 Controls

Unique new FlyWheel scroll dial, as well as a bank of soft command keys.

Lowrance HDS-5 Sounder

Maximize Your Angling Experience

Humminbird Ethernet Networking

Spend less time fiddling with wires and more time filling your livewell. Available with our latest 700 Series color models on up, new Humminbird Ethernet Networking allows you to share views, transducers, GPS positions, and more. What's in it for you? Try blazing-fast speed and maximum flexibility on the water. Directly connect unit upon unit to assemble a fishfinding force of nature. With no complicated connections or expensive wiring, finding fish has never been easier or faster.

DualBeam Plus

Get the best of both worlds, with selectable narrow and wide beams you can view individually, or melded into one display. A precision 20° beam provides high accuracy returns of fish, structure, and bottom profile. The wider 60° beam provides greater coverage for fish and bait fish. You can view the two beams separately, side by side, or blended together for the most complete picture.

Switchfire Sonar

When you hit the water, you don't limit yourself to one bait. So why limit your sonar? Exclusive Humminbird SwitchFire Sonar gives you the power to choose how returns are displayed. With two unique modes, you have complete control to adjust with the fishing conditions, making our down-looking sonar an even more valuable fishfinding tool.

Split Screen Zoom

Split Screen Zoom increases the displayed resolution to separate sonar returns that are very close together. In this view, the display is split to show a narrow slice of the full range view on the right and the zoomed view on the left. The zoom preview box on the right tracks the bottom in the full range view.

Humminbird 788ci HD Combo Map
Fish like a pro on your home lake, or a lake far from home, thanks to Humminbird ContourXD maps of over 3000 lakes.
Humminbird 788ci HD Combo Fishfinder
Split Screen Zoom increases the displayed resolution to separate sonar returns that are very close together.
Freeze Frame/Structure Marking

Pressing any arrow on the four-way cursor control instantly stops the sonar graphic display to allow a closer inspection of submerged structure, bait fish, and underwater contours. Movable cursor feature allows you to instantly discern depth of any sonar return and mark waypoints from the sonar screen for navigation. Pressing the EXIT key will exit the freeze frame and the display will start to resume scrolling. Mark the location of fish-attracting structure, bottom transitions, or any feature anywhere on traditional sonar with the Sonar Cursor.

Selective Fish ID+

Fish ID+ uses advanced sonar processing to interpret sonar returns, and displays a Fish Symbol when very selective requirements are met. When a fish is detected, a fish icon and its depth are displayed above the return that has been classified as being a fish. Three different fish icons represent intensity of the sonar return, and provide an indicator of relative fish size.

Real Time Sonar (RTS) Window

A Real Time Sonar (RTS) Window appears on the right side of the display in the Sonar View only. The RTS Window always updates at the fastest rate possible and shows only the returns from the bottom, structure, and fish that are within the transducer beam. The RTS window can be displayed as narrow (standard), wide, or off.

Sonar Echo Enhancement

Sonar Echo Enhancement shows fish, bait, and more--even watch your vertical jigging on-screen. This is possible through advanced sonar processing and provides the details you want and need. It's important to know what depth the fish are located and equally important to be able to place your lure at that precise depth. Be careful! You may jerk the rod early while watching the screen instead of waiting for the actual bite.

TreuArch Technology

Many competitive sonar products commonly use post processing software to "enhance" the arching effect produced when suspended targets enter and leave a sonar beam. This additional processing can slow down performance and exaggerate the information displayed. Humminbird�s TrueArch Technology utilizes parallel processing of sonar data to eliminate unwanted interference and noise and reveal unaltered sonar echoes resulting in true arches of fish targets. This helps anglers more quickly discern the size and depth of fish targets.

Built-In U.S. ContourXD Maps

Humminbird has upgraded the free, built-in cartography software on the 788ci HD Combo. All-new ContourXD by Navionics is an enhanced, professional mapping package. With over 3,000 U.S. lake maps in the database, you will be able to find a lake close to any location you might want to wet a line. As an added bonus, ContourXD maps will feature depth contour lines, so you can find all the drops, bumps and channels holding fish.

Heads will turn, jaws will drop. Many tournaments will be won. The new Humminbird 1157 features a massive, 10.4" diagonal full-color display with pristine, 600V by 800H pixel clarity. Actually to call it a mere display would be an understatement. It's more like your big-screen view of what's below. This unit, with Humminbirds DualBeamPLUS sonar, gives you the best of both worlds. You can use selectable narrow and wide beams individually or melded into one display. Because it's a big world, the big display is the perfect navigation tool, too. The 16-channel GPS and chartplotting capability, the built in Uni-Map and optional Navionics Gold and HotMaps charts, will turn you into a navigation pro. Upgrade to Navionics Platinum and see the world in entirely new ways, with satellite overlays and even aerial photography. Plus, add any of our performance enhancing fishing modules for even more capability. Seventy-five percent of the earth's surface is water...the 1157 has you covered.
