    Default ? CRAPPIE ON SIDE IMAGE


    When finding crappie on your side image are there a way to determined the size of them. Or just start fishing for them and see what u get.

    I’ve not found a way to determine size. Like you mentioned, just catch a couple to see. Normally if I catch more than 5 or so too small in a row I just move on.
    Also I sometimes switch to 2d or DI. If there stacked up in the water column I try to vary depth to see if the big uns are deeper.

    Not that I’ve figured out. Here is an image using si on a mooring cell. It told me all I needed to know....lots of crappie. Caught them from 12-14 inches at will.

    Try fine tuning your graph and not scanning as wide of a path. I use the blue screen on mine and look at the shadows to determine the size. Also the bigger the mark will determine the size, at least on my graph. I’m on the water daily if my health will let me and have looked at my graph at least 500 hours. . Name:  IMG_0530.jpg

Size:  101.4 KB I have a helix 9 gen 1 and these r some pics from this spring. I can make out the bigger fish in the groups from the smaller one on these pics. But most r a pound plus and some pushing 2 1/4. The smaller fish r the small marks. Sorry for the quality of them pics my screen needed to be clean

    One thing that really helps is to always scan a set width, for me that’s 95’.
    Your width will be different.
    One you have looked at the 95’ long enough, you can tell right away what size they are.
    Just takes practice.
