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.

I'll add links to the top of this as you guys talk about them...

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.

I made this thread a sticky so it will be easier to find.

It looks like huge catfish with whiskers..or maybe a shark!!!

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

JMACK i would swear if I didnt know any better that looks like a catfish!!!!!

my boss has pictures of sharks that look just like that image,, he graduated from OKLAHOMA UNIVERSITY ( dont know better, than ta swim with sharks ??? he spent all that money & didnt learn much,, did he ),, I came from OKLAHOMA STATE and they taught me that sharks swim in water and there aint no toll booths from Texas coast ta Casumel.....
