Fish Finder vs GPS Marine: Which Category Do You Need First?

A fish finder shows what is under the boat, a GPS shows where you are. Here is how to decide which comes first.

Test batteries, wiring, transducers, screens and software at home so the first trip of the year is all fishing.

Heat, glare and humidity shorten the life of screens and batteries. A few habits keep them working all summer.

Autumn fish follow bait and shifting temperatures. Sonar and GPS help you find both and learn the pattern.

Short battery life ends a lot of fishing videos early. A power handle or USB mount keeps the camera running.

Both cameras can make great fishing videos. The right choice depends on water, budget and how you fish.

A great catch photo and a healthy fish are not opposites. Plan the shot, keep it quick and release with care.

Steady footage from the bank starts with the right tripod, clamp or rod pod, and a bit of planning.

The wrong card can ruin a day of footage. Here is how to choose speed, capacity and care for your camera.

Many action cameras are waterproof on their own, but a case adds depth, impact and spray protection in the right conditions.
