The new Humminbird Xplore Fish Finder Series, including the Xplore 9, Xplore 10, and Xplore 12, has made the brand's most popular tech even easier to use, plus they've added a ton of maps so you can get the benefits of this cutting-edge tech no matter where you're wetting a line.
The new units were on display at ICAST 2025, where the Xplore was honored with the convention's New Product Showcase award in the Electronics category.
Every entry in the Xplore series is designed around the features anglers rely on and use the most, letting them get a clear picture of what's under their boat with a choice of sonar from Humminbird's parent brand, Johnson Outdoors, including MEGA Live 2 forward-facing sonar (FFS).
The Xplore includes LakeMaster and CoastMaster charts and allows users to sync an astonishing 10,000 fish spots with custom colors and icons to a smartphone through an all-new waypoint management system.
Display sizes are available in 9-inch, 10-inch, and 12-inch sizes.
