Lowrance Hook2 5 HDI Questions - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I have a 7TI but I had no problem seeing the bottom at 300' the last few trips and had to switch to that setting because on the Solo Skiff while moving above 6 mph my screen was getting a lot of interference on the 83Hz setting. I figured it has to do with cavitation, but switching to high chirp the sonar has a good screen again even going over 13.5 mph. I know the Hook2 series has a lot of issues but it might be connection problems or settings other than the transducer.
