i only have the hummingbird,but i thought id try the fish id on one of my recordings that i have.at first i really didnt get a lot of fish symbols.i had to turn fieh id sensitivity up in sonar menu.looks kindof kool heres a picture

yes, now that i could handle---what lake are you----i do know that the fish symbols on lowrance are tiny, tiny----not to my liking if i ever see themlol

have sent a lot of pictures into lowrance---i am still having trouble posting them out of photo bucket as it keeps wanting to post the same one even though i mark a different one each time.

kentucky lake. wish that i could be more help.good luck

just put boat in sling, raised it, husband with jon boat going to relook at transducers. the sonar transducer had gotten hit now pointing more down than up where was put the last time. put it back at raised position 2 notches, same with structure scan. run out on lake carlton---a little too high i think, back home , in the sling, lower both a "TAD". call it a day, wrap it up, supposed to storm tomorrow, so well see what lowrance has to say except---YOUR TRANDUCERS TOO LOW IN SECOND SET OF PICTURES! ( already expecting that) kosmos, were your pictures live or simulation?

ps. taking my husband to his favorite MEXICAN tomorrow---he deserves that and much more
