See the Seabed. Fish Smarter.
We all know, with fishing, habitat is where it’s at. Even if you’re fishing for mid-level schooling fish, the seafloor is the beginning of the food chain. With WASSP Multibeam, you’ll find fish and relevant habitat over a much wider area than traditional single-beam systems. Plus, detect where hard ground starts and finishes, so you can optimise your fishing operations.
Inshore, coastal and offshore fishing • Trawling • Purse seining • Pot fishing • Shellfish dredging • Longlining • Fish farms • Sport fishing
Map new grounds
With TruEchoCHIRP sounder and real-time 3D seafloor mapping in up to 1000m* depth
Identify structure and habitat
Use backscatter to find hard or soft ground, and locate species in the water column
Understand fish distribution
With the 120 degree multibeam sounder you can locate fish more accurately
Support sustainable operations
Reduce fuel usage and avoid potential obstacles to prevent costly gear snagging
Why Commercial Fishers Choose WASSP
With WASSP you can identify the right locations and save your own seafloor bathymetry, backscatter and fish mapping data for more targeted strategic fishing, time after time. With a precise view of what is below, there no need to waste time and fuel on unproductive grounds, ensuring you get the fish you need, without the waste.
WASSP provides a real-time view of the seabed and water column, helping skippers identify productive fishing areas and understand fish behaviour. You can build up your own precise geo referenced sea floor database leading to more efficient and targeted fishing.
Yes, WASSP systems are designed to perform across a wide range of depths and environments, from coastal waters to offshore fishing grounds, with different processor and transducer options for depth requirements.
No, WASSP is designed to be intuitive and practical, allowing skippers to quickly interpret data and make decisions without interrupting operations by either using our CDX software or within TimeZero Pro and Olex.
WASSP systems are built to integrate with a wide range of onboard marine electronics, allowing input from a range of sensors and supporting a seamless setup on most vessels, as well as optional export to XYZ, GSF and Echoview formats.
Built for the Real World
WASSP systems are designed to perform in challenging marine environments.
With reliable hardware, intuitive software, and ongoing development, WASSP delivers practical tools that commercial operators can rely on every day.
Choose your Fishing Depth
F3 Multibeam Solution
Wideband CHIRP and multibeam technology lets you can scan up to a 120 degrees (up to 3.5 times depth) swath port-to-starboard for a complete picture of seafloor bathymetry giving you unprecedented clarity.
F3X Multibeam Solution
With a higher power processor, the F3X allows for deeper water mapping and water column target identification, perfect for operations within 600m of water depth.
F3XL Deepwater Multibeam
Utilising a higher power processor with a low frequency transducer the WASSP F3XL gets you all the high definition mapping and water column targets in even deeper water.
I decided to purchase the WASSP to gain an edge over other local fisherman and to update the technology on board my boat. The results WASSP gives me are literally something I used to dream about! One of the biggest benefits we have experienced has been the huge savings in fuel. Individual pinnacles make up the majority of our ground and you can waste a lot of time and fuel searching for them. I would not want to be a commercial fisherman without the WASSP!
