What is a Fish Finder?<\/span><\/h2>\n
A fish finder might seem like just another gadget, but it is really so much more.<\/p>\n
Using sonar and sound waves, it is able to map out the body of water and create a “picture” (sonar images) of what is going on beneath the water’s surface.<\/p>\n
The sound waves emitted by a fish finder bounce off objects like fish, rocks, vegetation, etc., and return the signal to the unit.<\/p>\n
This is helpful in determining water depth, schools of fish, and any objects that might be in the way of the angler and his catch.<\/p>\n
