Fishing Techniques Using Simrad Technology

When it comes to locating fish, reading underwater structure, and navigating confidently, Simrad marine electronics deliver unmatched precision. Anglers across the coast rely on Simrad chartplotters, sonar, and radar systems to turn fishing trips into successful catches.

Finding Fish with Simrad Sonar

Using products like the Simrad GO Series and Simrad NSS evo3S, anglers can visualize depth, bottom contour, and bait schools in real time. The Active Imaging™ sonar reveals structure and fish-holding areas with lifelike detail, helping you pinpoint reefs, drop-offs, and wrecks where big fish hide.

Spotting Schools and Birds with Simrad Radar

The Simrad HALO radar series provides a clear edge when searching offshore. HALO’s pulse compression technology detects bird activity miles away — a proven sign of active bait and predators below. With its ultra-fast 360° sweeps, you can track flocks and find tuna, mahi, or kingfish before other boats even arrive.

Combining Radar and Sonar for Ultimate Accuracy

Integrating Simrad radar and sonar systems gives anglers a complete picture of what’s happening above and below the surface. Use radar to locate activity zones, then mark them on your GO or NSS chartplotter to return later. Add a Simrad autopilot and NMEA 2000 network module for seamless, hands-off precision while trolling or repositioning.

Real-World Results

Inshore anglers report that Simrad StructureScan™ reveals submerged trees and drop-offs where redfish and snook school. Offshore crews use HALO radars to track surface feeds 6+ miles out, while GO12 XSE units guide them right over the ledge.
