Yes you can meter squid, and I'm sure that you can meter the giant 7gill shark that's under you too...!

First off thanks for the report.

Second, the swim bladder is what creates the tell tale arch seen on a sonar. Ultrasound does not get a return from air so a fish mark shows as an arch due to fish shape and swim bladder. With this thought process you will still see a seven gill shark, it just won't appear as an arch. The same way we see structure on a finder.

Thanks again Aaron and Julie for the timeliness.

You guys all seem to need a little refresher course on using your FFs.

Oh, hell, Greg, you ain't doing that. Good information is good information in our eyes. Besides, our report was one of opening eyes, I think we accomplished that. It's all good. As much as I think I know, I can probably squeeze a little more knowledge in there, so long as it comes from competent sources.
I've been doing the ocean scene for 40+ years, much to learn, but don't tell me my crap, like the female lifeguard making sure of 4WD at the launch. To quote her, "No machinery has EVER been on the La Jollla Shores". My ass. I suppose those 4 foot high, 4 foot wide, 10 foot long mounds of sand that I personally saw being assembled by bulldozers were actually being assembled by sand dozers, a natural phenonomenon found in nature. Personally, I thought she was a c&%$#. I could quote other reasons, but let your own experiences judge her.
