FISH FINDERS - SONAR... Whatever you call them, there are some great brands like Vexilar, Marcum or Garmin that offer technology you absolutely want on the ice this season.
JPT Head Coach Jason Revermann is one AVID hardwater angler and you'll want to read this to make the best use of your fishing electronics. He says that he's seen anglers make some crucial mistakes....... "One of the biggest mistakes is anglers not marking fish, so they cease or dial back their jigging. They’ll put their rods in a rod holder and wait until they mark a fish, then pick up the rod and resume jigging. This sudden movement can trigger a bite, but this sudden movement also can scare approaching fish. If a fish approaches your still lure, don’t do anything too aggressive. Maybe grab the rod and slowly raise the lure with a gentle twitch. See how the fish reacts."Learn more
