Looks like interference. Turn the other electronics off one at a time and see if it goes away.
I’m fairly new here and not super familiar with the newest fish finder tech. I took my boat out yesterday (09/18/22) to try out my new Garmin Striker 9sv and I was getting these strange lines. Can you tell me if this is normal, interference, or if maybe it’s something I caused in installation? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Agrees it definitely looks like interference.

Perfect! I appreciate the responses! The Humminbird transducer is mounted on the opposite side of the transom, so maybe that’s what’s causing it. I’m only using it for the maps, so I may be able to turn it off and see the change. Thanks again!

Go in and turn the sonar off on the Hummingbird unit. No need to have the sonar on if you are just using the Hbird for maps.

How fast are you moving ? Does it go away at a stop ? Could be interference

I was going between 2.5-3mph, according to the graphs. I fought those lines quite a bit that day but I hadn’t seen them again the last several times I took the boat out. Not sure what changed… That was the first time I had used that Garmin and I’ve tweaked several settings since that day. Maybe I changed something that fixed it? I’m not really sure… It works great now though!
