Shop the Sonar Shield Lowrance ActiveTarget 2 cover and choose your color.
A fishing rig can be practical and still feel like yours. A yellow transducer cover adds a bright detail to an otherwise dark collection of electronics, mounts and cables. For a Lowrance ActiveTarget 2 owner, color is an easy place to add that personal touch without changing the sonar setup.
Start with the transducer model
Before choosing a color, confirm the name on your transducer and select the matching product listing. ActiveTarget, ActiveTarget 2 and ActiveTarget 2 XL are distinct names; a similar-looking cover or a matching color is not a reason to assume fit. The shopping link in this guide is specifically for the ActiveTarget 2 cover.
Choose a color with a purpose
The linked Sonar Shield listing offers yellow alongside black, green, blue, red, pink, orange, silver, gold, white and purple. Check the current selector for availability. Yellow gives the cover a clear visual identity; black offers a quieter look. Neither choice changes your sonar settings or makes the transducer find more fish.
Here are three ways to make the decision easier:
- Match a detail: choose a color that picks up a small accent already on your rig.
- Choose contrast: use a bright cover if you prefer accessories that stand out against dark equipment.
- Choose what you enjoy: there is no need to make every accessory the same color. A single bright detail can be enough.
Give the cover a familiar home
Our suggested organization habit is to decide where the cover belongs while you fish. Use an accessible storage spot that does not interfere with controls, movement or other gear. The point is simply to make the next step obvious: remove the cover before using the transducer, put it in its familiar place, and have it ready when you pack up.
If another person helps prepare the boat, show them that storage location. A shared routine works better when nobody has to guess which accessory goes where. Keep the explanation simple and model-specific.
Protection for the time between trips
Sonar Shield describes this cover as an injection-molded ASA shell for transport and storage, with clearance around the sonar surfaces. Its bright colors can also serve as a visible reminder to remove it before deployment. Follow the supplied fit and securement directions for your setup.
That is the role of the cover: a useful part of getting your equipment from one fishing day to the next. The best color is the one you like seeing on your rig and find easy to keep in your routine.
