Biosonix

Professional anglers have given BSX credit for winning the Bassmaster Classic, W.O.N. US Open, and 10 pro tour events total in the past two years. Most recently Thliveros credited BSX for his two back-to-back Bassmaster Major wins.

Biosonix is a revolutionary fishing product that reproduces the natural sound signatures of baitfish and the sounds of baitfish being attacked and eaten by predatory fish. These sounds are digitally recorded and played back via a patented underwater speaker system.

Biosonix has been proven through years of research to stimulate a feeding response in multiple species of fishes.

Biosonix comes equipped with: six preloaded signature sounds; four custom sound pattern options; an underwater speaker with 25-feet of cord designed to attach to a trolling motor or be dropped over the side of the boat; a durable Pelican case housing for unit; play/pause foot switch; AC/DC chargers; and boat deck mounting strap with clamps.


Garmin Fishfinder 400C

The versatile Fishfinder 400C has a super bright, high-resolution 4-inch display and is great for finding fish in both freshwater and saltwater.

The 400C is available with a choice of dual beam or dual frequency transducers, so it’s readily adaptable for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. The 400-watt (RMS) dual beam version offers a wide fish-finding cone and reaches depths of 900 feet. With the 500-watt (RMS) dual frequency transducer, you can reach a depth of 1,500 feet.

Fishfinder 400C features a crisp, ultra-bright 4-inch QVGA color display, plus UltraScroll™ for screen updates at live-action speeds. It’s also CANet-compatible, so you can share sonar information with plotters located elsewhere in your boat.
