Winter fishing can be very challenging but mastering your electronics will make it much easier! If you’re not catching fish you start wondering if they’re even around, if you’re in the right part of the lake, or if its what you’re using. Step one to consistent Winter fishing for any predatory fish (bass, panfish, catfish, etc…) is to locate baitfish. This can be done very quickly with modern electronics and today we’re showing you how to dial them in to maximize your time on the water!
Today Tim is coving a handful of topics including…
– Adjusting Water Level Offset During Winter Pool
-Measuring Distances on Side Imaging
-Waypointing on Side Imaging
-Adjusting Your Side Imaging Display
-Recognizing fish and baitfish on modern electronics
Most boats are equipped with some sort of depth finding/ fishing finding electronics. Some use 2D sonar, others use advanced technologies like side imaging, down imaging, and Live imaging. We all know the important of these electronics but the majority of boat owners and fishermen have no idea how to use these tools effectively. Spending a bit of time to adjust your electronics will absolutely help you catch more fish in Winter.
Below you’ll find links to the exact electronics that we use to maximize our time on the water and catch more fish. We’ve also included more budget-minded products that will still do an awesome job while saving a few dollars. All of the links go directly to Tackle Warehouse where you can see detailed photos and descriptions of each item.
