Tip
Tip: Use sonar or a depth-finding device to learn bottom type, depth, and fish depth in stillwater, but do not let screens replace watching water and indicator
How to do it: Use sonar for bottom and depth information, while still watching water and indicator for takes
Mistake it fixes: Relying only on screens in stillwater
Why it works: Sonar gives bottom and depth data that eyes cannot, but takes are still shown by water and indicator. Both sources together are best.
