4 the most popular fishing innovations

These days, technology is advancing far faster than we realize. New solutions transform many aspects of our daily lives and that includes such activities as fishing as well. While fishing itself is older than anyone can remember, for a long time people had to learn from experience what works best in what situation.

However, new technologies, especially those created in recent years have transformed the process as a whole. Be it fishfinders, fishing bite alarms, line technologies and so on. Many anglers, especially those who are more conservative, tend to overlook these new things, for a variety of reasons.

Today, we will talk about the main innovations that will surely transform fishing in the near future.

Fishfinders

Fishfinders are unique innovations that help track the fish in a certain body of water using a special radio wave device. Normally, you can easily set it up using either buttons or a touchscreen for just the right type of fishing.

Since it works in a wireless manner, it’s very easy to map and track your routes, find the correct maps for the area and so on. 

Brands like Lawrence, which could be considered as the leaders in the field of fishfinders, can use both sonar tracking as well as imaging technologies to track fish in a way like never before.

Fishing cameras

Filming your fishing trip is quite a new thing happening right now. It's wonderful to know that with a specialized fishing camera you can film your journey as it unfolds, even catching the fish just as they bite in the waters.

The variants by GoPro are arguably the best there is on the market. You probably have heard of GoPros before and their ability to catch various types of footage outside. With this small camera, you won’t have any problems filming everything about your journey on the water.

Some of its functions include voice and gesture control, touchscreens and of course easy upload of the footage right to the cloud. For fishing experience, the camera also offers water and underwater protection.

Creative lures

Lures have been an important part of fishing for quite a while now, particularly, the last few decades. However, one could argue that manufacturers only recently tried innovating and making it much more exciting than ever before.

Nowadays lures are much more creative in their shapes with frog, duck and many other imitations being more commonly seen in recent updates. While in the beginning were skeptical about these radical designs, the effectiveness of them in the water, soon shut any critics up.

It seems that more manufacturers will drive towards more new designs when it comes to lure making.

Tackle guidance systems

Rod tackle guide systems are taking the fishing world slowly by storm. The first one it seems was invented back in the 2010s in the US. Again it saw much skepticism upon its release, with the main goal being to help anglers cast better.

However, the new technologies not only proved the doubters wrong it really did work like a charm. With this tackle guiding system, even inexperienced anglers could cast much further and accurately than ever before.

It seems that in the future more and more manufacturers will pay attention to how the develop and adapt new rod components as consumers no longer want simplicity, but a rod that’s smart enough to help those who fish.

All in all

In this article we’ve talked about the 4 main innovations that are already transforming the fishing industry and will continue to do so in the near future. Manufacturers of future components will surely give way to new technologies and innovations.
