BaitPro V600
Compact Advanced GPS Bait Boat
The BaitPro V600 makes the major jump from manual bait placement to advanced GPS navigation.
Its GPS system can store up to 200 fishing positions across four fishing grounds, allowing productive areas to be saved and revisited instead of manually navigating to the same position on every run.
The V600 also doubles bait capacity compared with the smaller 1.5kg models, carrying up to 3kg across two independently controlled hoppers.
For anglers who already know the underwater features they want to fish, the V600 provides most of the advanced navigation capabilities of the flagship system without adding a sonar fish finder.
Advanced GPS functions
The V600 provides:
- Up to 200 saved GPS positions
- Four fishing-ground memories
- GPS navigation to saved positions
- GPS electronic anchor
- One-button return-to-home
- Automatic low-battery return
- Automatic lost-signal return
- Automatic over-distance return
- 500m electronic operating boundary
- Fixed-speed cruise control
- Real-time distance information
High-capacity bait delivery
The V600 carries up to 3kg of bait, divided between two independently controlled hoppers.
High and low drive speeds let you choose between more controlled positioning and faster travel across open water, with a maximum rated speed of approximately 250m/min.
Choose the V600 if:
You want a GPS bait boat capable of repeatedly putting large bait loads onto saved fishing positions, but you don't need sonar.
BaitPro V070
GPS Bait Boat + Wireless Fish Finder
The BaitPro V070 adds underwater information to GPS bait placement.
The boat can store up to 40 GPS fishing positions, while the included wireless fish finder allows you to investigate depth, underwater contours and fish activity before deciding where to place your bait.
This creates a useful fishing workflow:
Find the area → save the GPS position → return with your bait and rig.
Wireless fish finder
The V070 fish finder uses 125kHz sonar with a 90° beam and provides a specified depth range of approximately 0.6–45m.
It can provide information including:
- Water depth
- Fish indications
- Approximate fish position
- Bottom contours
- Underwater terrain
The fish finder has a wireless working range of approximately 100m, while the bait boat itself can be controlled at distances of up to 500m.
This distinction is important: the fish finder is primarily used to explore water within sonar range and identify useful areas. Once a location has been found, it can be stored using the V070's GPS system for future bait placement.
GPS navigation
The V070 provides:
- Up to 40 saved GPS positions
- GPS-assisted navigation
- Automatic cruise
- Fixed-speed cruise control
- One-button return
- Automatic low-battery return
- Automatic lost-signal return
- Automatic over-distance return
The boat carries up to 1.5kg of bait across two independently controlled hoppers.
Choose the V070 if:
You want a GPS bait boat with fish finder and value underwater information more than the larger payload and more advanced GPS system of the V600.
BaitPro V803 Pro
Advanced GPS + Integrated Sonar Bait Boat
The BaitPro V803 Pro is the flagship of the BaitPro range.
It combines the advanced GPS capabilities of the V600 with a long-range integrated sonar fish finder, four independent bait hoppers and a 3kg total bait capacity.
Instead of using a separate sonar sensor close to shore, the V803 Pro's sonar system is integrated into the boat itself and has a specified wireless range of up to 500m, matching the bait boat's maximum control distance.
The result is a complete system for finding underwater features, saving their GPS position, navigating back to them and delivering bait and rigs.
Integrated sonar fish finder
The V803 Pro uses dual-frequency sonar with:
- 125kHz / 200kHz sonar frequencies
- 90° / 45° beam options
- Approx. 0.7–100m depth range
- Up to 500m wireless sonar range
- Dedicated 2.8-inch fish finder display
The sonar system can provide:
- Water depth
- Water temperature
- Fish indications
- Fish depth
- Relative fish size
- Bottom contours
- Underwater structure and terrain
Advanced GPS navigation
The V803 Pro supports:
- Up to 200 saved GPS positions
- Four fishing-ground memories
- GPS navigation to saved positions
- GPS electronic anchor
- Point-to-point navigation

GPS Bait Boat or Sonar Bait Boat?
The main choice isn't simply between four different boats. It is deciding how much information and automation you want while fishing.
A standard remote control bait boat such as the BaitPro 2011-5 solves the basic problem of getting bait and your rig accurately into the water.
Moving to a GPS bait boat adds repeatability. The BaitPro V600 and V070 can remember fishing positions, allowing you to return to productive areas without estimating distance and direction on every trip.
A bait boat with fish finder adds another layer: instead of selecting the position only from what you can see above the water, sonar can provide information about depth, fish activity and bottom structure.
The BaitPro V803 Pro combines both systems at their highest level in the range, allowing long-range sonar searching and GPS positioning from the same boat.
Bait Boats for Carp Fishing in South Africa
Bait boats are particularly useful when fishing larger dams where productive areas may lie well beyond comfortable or accurate casting distance.
They can also help when you need to place a rig beside a specific margin, drop-off, channel or previously identified feeding area.
Rather than relying on repeated long-distance casting, a remote control bait boat lets you physically transport bait and terminal tackle to the chosen area.
GPS and sonar models extend that idea further by helping you find, remember and repeatedly return to productive fishing locations.
The BaitPro range gives you the choice between a straightforward entry-level bait boat, advanced GPS navigation, GPS combined with a wireless fish finder, or a complete integrated GPS sonar system.
