USING SONAR EQUIPMENT FOR FISHING

Scanning sonar is now the big thing in fishing. With new Side and Down Scan imaging, anglers can search to depths of 300 feet and to the sides of the water column 300 feet each way.

Now anglers can see the fish, count the fish, and know what and where they are with this technology. Veteran angler Ken Sturdivant will show you how to use this technology to go “catching” instead of fishing.
