Thread: Humminbird background colors

Don't get stuck on one color palette. It can vary for me depending on lighting, sunglasses, and whether I'm at console or bow. If I'm not seeing anything, the inverse sometimes shows they are there.

Very true everyone is different for looking at structure Amber for me works great but for finding fish the amber to me hides a lot of fish looking for that white mark from fish.

What color do you prefer for when strictly looking for fish?

I prefer Blue as I stated above I only look for fish as I do not care about having a pretty perfect picture. That is why my scroll speed is set faster as fish will show as longer white marks, makes it easier for me to see them versus a tiny spec.. Rocks are the hardest to pick fish out of when SI`ing rock I will turn down my sensitivity, may not even see the rock but fish will still show up as white marks.
