The Best Fish Finders
Fish Finders are used by both professional fisherman and sailors who are fishing for leisure purposes to locate fish and know the depth levels when out on the water.
They are a common piece of marine navigation kit and provide the sailor with the location of fish and depth in the water via an LCD digital screen and utilise various technologies.
Choosing the best fish finder for your requirements depends on what you hope to get out of using one. The majority of fish finders available on the market come with transducers. A transducer is the SONAR part of the fish finder and it sends a signal into the water in the area in which you are fishing and then determines if there any echoes in the vicinity.
With that in mind, we have put together our recommendations for the best fishers below.
The Best Fish Finders With Transducers
Garmin Striker Vivid 9 SV & 7 SV with GT52 Transducer
This fish finder offers some of the latest technology to locate where and what fish are under the water. It provides a clear and colourful screen that comes in 7 new vivid colour options to locate fish with strong levels of contrast on a 7-inch screen to provide high levels of clarity.
It also has the added benefit of providing waypoint marking to make sure you are able to catch more fish and utilise the technology for marking hot spots so you can quickly and easily find your way back and reap the rewards. This is further enhanced by the ability to store up to 2 million acres of maps with 1-foot contours.
If you are in search of a professional fish finder, then the Garmin Striker Vivid 9 SV or 7 SV are the best fish finders for you.
Garmin Striker Vivid 5cv with GT20 Transducer
The Garmin Striker Vivid 5cv GT20 Transducer fish finder is more favourable for those on a lower budget compared to the GT52 but still offers a range of powerful features to provide strong levels of performance compared to its competitors. As well as a built-in SONAR, it also provides high sensitivity GPS to allow you to plan and create routes and view your boat’s current speed. If you are looking for the best professional fish finder on a budget, then this is the perfect choice.
