Side Scanning Sonar for Bass Fishing

The breadth of tools available in today’s world of bass fishing electronics is absolutely fantastic.

It seems like it was only a few years ago, when the electronics technology available for bass anglers focused primarily on different types of fish finders  such as flashers and chart recorders.

Recently, however, advances in electronic technology now allow bass fishermen to locate their position with global positioning systems (GPS); monitor the subsurface world with underwater cameras and use sonar units sensing the underwater world both vertically and horizontally using side-scanning technologies.

Below, Al Lindner (formally of In-Fisherman and now Angling Edge fame) shows the benefits side-scanning sonar units and how they provide an amazing perspective of the underwater environment.  This in-turn, of course, can help you catch more bass …

Extend Your Floating Net Handle

If you are a small boat, float tube or kayak angler you may have purchased a Promar or Foreverlast short handle floating net to safely land your prize catch. 

Where the short handle works well if wading or fishing from a float tube, it doesn't take long to find it comes up a little "short" at times when fishing from a canoe or kayak (splash). 

Want to know a way to solve the problem and keep the net floating?

Problem solved with just a few components and sweat equity it seems :)
