NFORMATION
:
If the prey that you are targeting prefers a weed habitat
you should try to fish your bait as close to the top of the
weeds as possible (installing a weed guard on your hook
will prevent accidental snagging of the weed).
UNCOVERING THE BEST HIDING PLACES
The VirtuView™ display on your Fish Finder depicts bottom structure with a
series of rock indicators. If the species that you are targeting prefers to ambush
prey as per the above Fishing Tip, pay close attention to the bottom structure
indicators when searching for fish.
A.
No rock indicators identify a structureless bottom.
This depicts a bottom that is most likely sandy or
muddy with no debris or contour. A good habitat
for some fish, but not very desirable for ambush
feeders.
B.
One Rock Indicator identifies limited structure. You
would most likely find a small rock, a small pile of
rocks, or uneven bottom contour. This is not a bad
place for hiding fish, but due to the limited amount of
structure, there may not be a lot.
C.
Two Rock Indicators identifies a considerable
amount of bottom structure, but scattered. A
considerable amount of time needs to be spent
fishing this area as each piece of structure could be
hiding a prize catch.
