Its not all that hard to find. I have observed M104 with my 20 x80 binos at the Star party in Wiruna, and have observed it with binos at other times.Usually from a dark site though. Very hard from my backyard
Have a go tonight..and use the hockey stick pointers that Mick and Westsky have mentioned , I think you will find M104
here's a picture of M104 taken with an ETX 70 and a webcam that is probably more represntative of the view through a pair of binos or a small scope
the smudge you see ..that's the galaxy
