fish finder

Aquatic detection device

A fish finder is an electronic device that uses sonar to detect fish underwater.

Mounted on boats, it displays the depth, bottom contour, and location of fish below the surface: The fish finder showed a school about thirty feet down.

Essential equipment for serious anglers, though interpreting the readings takes practice.
