    Prior to DI, it was a must for me. Just because it doesn't say there's a fish doesn't mean there isn't, but anytime it says there's a fish almost always guarantee's there is. I had a hard time picking fish out of brush or grass, but DI helps to single out each individual mark.

    With the 3 size fish ID small, medium and large what would each one be size wise?? Example, a small fish would be a fish between 4'' and 12''. A medium between 12'' and 20'' and large over 20''. I don't know, anybody know???????

    A general rule of thumb would be:
    small = 1 pound largemouth bass
    medium = 3 pound largemouth bass
    large = 5 pound largemouth bass
    Sorry guys, no Crappie cross-over sizes.

    I've been fishing for 30 years and in all that time I've never turned fish ID on

    manual mode, then tune to best picture, not the most returns, but the most information about the surrounding

    I couldn’t say Swampseed as I don’t know the relative swim bladder size comparison between a one-pound LMB and a 10 to 14 inch Crappie. In addition would be the size of the horizontal cross section of each fish.

    Easier for me to see fish symbols than an arch.

    The shallow water (under 10 ft . ) what you see on the low end units is not enough to depend on either . fish the structure . jmo
