learning to use the sonar...

[DallanC]

I've seen pictures off the new sonar like this... but damned if I can actually understand what I'm seeing. I see demo pictures of a sunken sailboat... ok I see it clear as day... but where the hell is a fish in that mess? How far above the ground is it?

The pictures look cool... but, well... I dont understand what I'm seeing.

I have a 3d finder that runs lots of diffferent beams into the water all at different angles. My display quickly and easily shows me a fish on either side of the boat and at a specific depth... all the while drawing a simple 3d representation of the bottom.

EDIT: this is what dummies like me use:
