Forward-facing sonar isn't just for tournament pros. Here's how to dial in LiveScope, Mega Live, or ActiveTarget for a normal Saturday on the water: gain at 65 percent, range at 40 feet, and the three baits that don't require a sponsorship.

Where do crappie go after the spawn? They slide off shallow cover into 10-15 ft brush in late spring, drop to 15-20 ft midsummer, and suspend over deeper wood when surface temps push past 80. Here is the depth-by-depth playbook.

Bass won't live below the thermocline because oxygen runs out down there, not because it's too cold. Find that layer and you've found the floor of every offshore summer pattern on your lake.

When water temps climb into the 80s, bass don't disappear. They go deep. Here's how to find them on offshore structure, read the thermocline, and pick the right rigs for summer bass fishing in June and July.

The best portable fish finder for kayak under $300 doesn't need to be complicated. Castable sonars and compact GPS units now give kayak anglers depth, structure, and mapping without drilling a single hole. Here are 5 picks that actually work from a yak.
