~60' deep or more: you want to be using your lowest frequency mainly. if you have a big enough screen, you can run dual frequency on one screen. But still the lower kHz the better. If you are just getting started, use only your low frequency. lower kHz has better penetration of depth, and seeing beneath hard marks like macks or crabs. it also typically will have a wider beam, which means you can see out to the side around you more. higher frequencies see better resolution of smaller or softer objects. so if you want to look at individual greenbacks, higher kHz is better. Low frequencies will give you the boomerangs and worms of big fish. turn up your sensitivity or gain until the bottom looks like a very "hot" or "hard" color (ie, the bottom looks like my pics above, in whatever color spectum you have) Oh yea, did I mention that having color is pretty important? EDIT: I should also add that you want to use the highest ping speed possible for fishing the deeper waters of LJ and inshore socal. If you get that far, then take some screen shots and post them here. I will give you some feedback from there. Last edited by chris138; 09-13-2017 at 09:30 PM. |
