Being able to See your target is a tremendous advantage when steelhead fishing. A good Fishfinder is the one tool you need on your next steelhead fishing expedition. With a Fishfinder, you will know exactly where you are most likely to make the perfect catch. Knowing exactly where the steelhead is laying will give you more time catching and less time searching for steelhead.

You want a Fishfinder designed to give you fast and clear information when you need it. The Fishfinder needs to have excellent shallow water performance. You will want one that is very capable of locating steelhead in deep water as well. A dual-beam transducer is a good option. These normally have user-selectable views going from narrow to wide. This will help you see more fish in shallow water this is also very important when searching for steelhead.

There are a number of Fishfinder manufactures out there today. Some of the better-known brands are Lowrance, Humminbird, and Garmin to mention a few. There are many other as well these were some that I have used over the years and I am familiar with is all.

Once you find the right fishfinder for you become as familiar as possible with how it works and what it is telling you. I have seen a number of steelhead anglers using fish locators that were not sure how they worked. They could have done just a well locating steelhead staying home and reading a comic book.

For those of use that do not have a boat we can jump into when ever we go fishing Humminbird has come out with a fishfinder just for us.

Humminbird SmartCast RF-35 Wrist Mount Fishfinder designed to be worn on your wrist. It is just like a watch for the ultimate in portability. The Humminbird SmartCast RF-5 Wrist Mount Fishfinder features the Advanced Remote Sonar Sensor (RSS). It has the wireless technology to provide precise information about bottom contour. It will even give you depth and water surface temperature. You wear it like a watch and get precise readouts easily. They are viewable on the 1.25”, 48V x 32H LCD screen. While the screen size does seem a little small once you get use to the size, it does provide you with some amazing information.

Using a Fishfinder will have you spending more time fishing productive water and less time search for that mystical steelhead. You will have an informed advantage among the other steelhead anglers. The pay off will be better steelhead fish stories than ever before.
