As was discussed in the other baseline ice fishing flashers on the market, the Humminbird Ice-35 is the baseline model from its namesake and compared to the other brands is measures up nicely. As with all of the baseline models they aren't as feature laden as their big brother counterparts, but they get the job done and get fish on the ice. As I have mentioned many times on this site, it is often in the best interest of the new ice fisherman to start with a base line fish finder in order to get the knack of using this crucial piece of ice fishing gear. The Humminbird Ice-35 is the base version in the line from Humminbird. For those looking for the other Humminbird flasher reviews please see one of the following:

Key Features of the Humminbird Ice-35
As a baseline flasher, the Ice-35 is one meant to get you into the flasher game. The largest benefit for ice fisherman is from when you have no ice fishing flasher to having one. Hard water fisherman who have used one will not even bother fishing without one and would rather go home than “fish blind” due to not being able to see what is going on in the water column. I'm of a similar thinking, I would rather go home than be without. Like nearly all of the modern ice fishing flashers, the Hummingbird Ice-35 has a 3 color display system that shows the difference between small, medium and large objects (small is shown as green, medium as yellow and large as red lines on the screen). The target separation is 3 inches which is worse than the higher end Humminbird fish finders, but definitely good enough for the beginning angler! It is also a bit behind the Marcum VX-1 (see as review at Marcum VX-1 review) You don’t want to be caught out ice fishing crappie without your flasher. It also comes with 800 watts of peak to peak power, which again is lower than the Marcum, but more than the FL-8 (see Vexilar FL-8 review). The biggest advantage that the Ice-35 has is that not only does it have zoom (which is more than the Vexilar baseline model can say as it doesn't have any), but it has an adjustable zoom that you can lock to any part of the water column (similar to Vexilars top model. See as review at Vexilar FL-20 review). It beats the baseline Marcum as you will need to go with their high end models to get that adjustable zoom (see the Marcum LX-5 review).
Humminbird Ice-35 prices
Being the lowest unit in the Hummingbird family affords a lower price. They are the new kids on the block when it comes to the ice fishing flasher game, but they have a great reputation in open water applications of sonar / fish finders. Given that they have matched the baseline model prices of the other companies in that the Ice-35 costs a standard $300 which is the standard price point.
Where can I find the best Humminbird Ice-35 price online?
This is the most commonly asked question people who are in the market for a flasher have. The easy answer is one that many you will hear repeatedly in online circles: Ebay and Craigslist. I always recommend using Ebay for those that want gurantees that the unit will function as promised (PayPal has very buyer friendly policies) while Craigslist is good for those looking to deal with local people and avoid shipping fees, but are willing to take on more risk. You can also find these units for sale many places online (including well respected retailers like Bass Pro Shops, Cabelas, and Red Rock Store), but generally you won’t find the best prices at these sites. You will need to look elsewhere.
Final recommendation on the Humminbird Ice 35
When it comes to ice fishing flashers I think that the Humminbird Ice-35 is the most feature laden model on the market today for the baseline models. I would steer people to either go with this model or the Marcum VX-1. If you are willing to look past the lack of track record with these units I would definitely go with the Ice-35 as it has adjustable zoom and a dual beam transducer in a baseline model. For those that want more track record go with the VX-1. I would not go with the Vexilar FL-8 due to the lack of features for the same price. Vexilar does have the longest tenure and a great reputation, however.
What are your experiences with the Ice-35? What would you tell someone that is in the market for a flasher and is considering the Bird Ice-35?
