    Default Humminbird 597 help


    I have a ? about the 455 and 200 beam in the 597. How far would you say the fish are to the left or right of this brush pile.Name:  S00015.PNG

Size:  95.5 KB I'm saying it is a brush pile but it could be brush and then bait over the brush that the fish are feeding on. Name:  S00014.PNG

    Take this answer with a grain of salt... I would think that would be impossible to say since the x-axis is a reference to time and not distance. Then again, makes me wonder what"chart speed" references.

    Maybe someone else will chime in.

    In 14.4ft of water ...

    455kHz (16°) - 14.4 x 0.28 = 4.032ft cone coverage
    200kHz (25°) - 14.4 x 0.44 = 6.336ft cone coverage

    And that's bottom coverage ...because the fish are a little higher in the cone, those distances would be even less ...

    Those fish are pretty close to the brush ...
