Right on. I've heard similar things. The kayak life is probably the harshest environment for a sonar. Often its corrosion on the connector pins or power supply terminals that causes problems, but...

Thanks JBL. Doesn't matter to me if it's sticky or not... as long as people want to keep discussing sonar theories and application, the thread will stick around.

Here's your rabbit hole, should...

Yes. The purplish return that you see there is probably some kind of kelp or debris floating midcolumn. If you were in 140' of water and saw that mark, I would say it might be a fish. But for how...
