Fish Finders Market

The global fish finders market was valued at $503.8 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $958.4 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2022 to 2031.

Fish finder equipment are based on Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse (CHIRP) sonar technology, which allows fishers to identify fish and other objects underwater. Fish finders are equipped with color screen display, which allows novice anglers to locate and catch the fish. As Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse (CHIRP) sonar technology is an open-source technology it becomes challenging for manufacturers to provide customers with better products than their competitors. Fish finder majorly finds its application in recreational, commercial, and professional fishing. Major market competitors now provide Compressed High Intensity Radar Pulse (CHIRP) sonar, down imaging, side imaging, and GPS, which caters to the combination of high-quality technology that enables the skilled anglers to find fishing locations easily. In the past, fishers or anglers by their gut feelings used to spend days or weeks trying to find the fish.

Increase in global level competitions where high precision tools, rods, reels, chartplotters, autopilot motors and waterproof rotors are required will help propel the growth of the global fish finders market. However, intense competition, owing to surge in penetration of IoT devices, high manufacturing cost of radars, sonar, and high precision interactive displays act as the key deterrent factors of the global market.

In addition, government policies on designated on-shore and off-shore fishing will be a key factor to maintain the biodiversity of near-extinct fishes. On the contrary, a fish finder is used in research-based geological studies to check the different terrains of contours using a C-map, which comes with a networked system.

The COVID-19 impact on the fish finder market is unpredictable, and is expected to remain in force for a few years. The COVID-19 outbreak forced governments across the globe to implement stringent lockdowns and ban import–export of essential raw material items for most of 2020, and few months in 2021. This led to sudden decline in availability of important raw materials for vehicle components. As a result of interrupted supply chains and production schedules caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, yacht production and sales suffered severely, which, in turn, negatively impacted the market for fish finder market in 2020. To prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus, governments across the globe implemented strict lockdowns and made social distancing mandatory. Consequently, several organizations began work-from-home programs as a precautionary measure. This led to a sudden decline in global demand for traveling, which has affected the fish finder market. However, vaccination enabled the lowering of barriers to economic activity, as well as domestic and international travel. As the restrictions lifted, travel recovered quickly leading to an increase in vehicle commutation, which is expected to boost the fish finders market.
