Trolled around for a couple of hours playing with the unit...set noise off, 800hz as I was in around 10-12 ft of water, and the contrast at med and high...made no differance.
I have read all the comments in the blog and gather that there are no "arches", no fish "ID" and images like that for fish.
So what should I look for?
Among the tree branches on the bottom the detail on the window is too small to see anything like the photos show i.e. really big "fish signatures"
So any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated.
