Images of Crappie Schools on Side Scan?
Can someone please direct me to a thread or post below what a school of crappie looks like on side imaging? I've been using a HELIX 9 since the spring and it is useful for locating baitfish and structure but I'm just not coming across schools of fish - I'd love to see an example to get better with identification. Thanks.

That’s an intake-output on the dead lock below Nickajack Dam. Not sure what year they built a new lock but this one was sealed up on the upper end. Those grates hold a ton of crappie throughout the year. Lost count of how many I caught there in the 7 years I fished it. In the winter it would also hold walleye and sauger. Not to mention about 1 December the white bass would also take up residence. On many days it was a fishing utopia.Originally Posted by BuckeyeCrappie

Thank you both.
Roy: what is your chart speed setting in the Hummingbird for those images? I usually set mine from 2-4 depending on boat speed. I do alot of slow trolling around 1mph.

My chart speed is about 6 and my boat speed is between 3 and 4 mph. Probably won't get clear imanges from side or down moving as slow as you are IMO.

My normal travel speed is 4 mph (pedal kayak) and I've been running the chart speed at 4. Sounds like I need to bump it up when I'm on the move. Thanks.

When searching for fish using SI I crank up my chart speed up to 7-10 not a pretty picture but what it does do is elongate any fish making them easier to pick out.

That is some great imagery I'm going to set my chart speed like this.
