Default Screen images and interpretations. (dial up beware)

Lets use this thread to show ANY and ALL of your sonar screen images. Whether they are from a card, cord, or camera/ black and white or color. Try to not make them to big for helping of loading the image.

Then the poster or readers can comment on what they see and what they wonder about. Many people look at different things and are really good at different aspects of a sonar.

Lets see some images!

South Carolina Page...GREAT INFO AND IMAGES!!

depth finder interpretations......

Jerry Blakes archived thread on fish finders...GREAT READ!! Check it out!

Getting The Most From Your Graph (Sonar, Sounder, Fishfinder Thangy, etc.)

Eagle and Lowarnce Emulators...download these free and use them on your computer...allows you to play with your particular units options and see what each of the settings do from the comfort of your home...then you can try it in the real world...it cycles ands shows baitfish/fish/different structures/depths and bottoms. Really good resource...and saves time for fishing instead of playing with your electronics.

It's been said that PVC trees dont show up on your finders very well. Not true. Here's the tree i placed.


And here's what shows up on my Eagle 320 sonar.


This is what i caught from it last friday, after it being in the water for a few months.

Here is a 997 si picture of a large 16' bamboo condo i put out. it's in about 35' water. i can see some bait balls to the left of the tree, but there is something kinda unusual looking lurking on the right side of tree. any ideas? you may have to enlarge the pic. to see it a little better.

Only thing I got right now, some balls of shad - and the solid line on
the 107 frequency (right side) is downrigger ball. Was pulling some crankbaits
and did catch a green carp right after this picture about 6 lbs

Them things looks like eels. If you catch a crappie, it cures what "eels" ya.

Interesting shot.. Huge Sturgeon?.. How about big school of crappie disguising themselves as one large fish..

Don't know, but a really cool pic.. Thanks for sharing
