Too warm or too cold water?
Fishing in too warm or too cold water
may be just a waste of time and money. The
same applies to a pelagic trawl placed on the
wrong side of a thermal layer. Using advanced
technology, rugged construction and awardwinning design, the PI
Temperature sensor allows you to increase your fi shing effi ciency.

The PI Temperature sensor tells you the
exact sea water temperature while you are
fishing.
The water temperature is an important parameter.
Fish and bait are temperature sensitive, and they are
normally found within specific temperature zones for
feeding and spawning.
However, the temperature layers in the water
are changing constantly, and for this reason the
temperature must be monitored constantly. Fishing in
an area with unfavourable water temperature might
be just a waste of time!
For any kind of trawling, use this sensor to
monitoring and log the temperature. Then, increase
your knowledge about the correlation between
temperature, fish concentration and catch efficiency.
On a purse seine net, monitor the temperature to see
when you are passing the thermo-cline.
