    I used the Gen 1 360 as my primary electronic for trolling jigs as well as crankbaits with Side Imaging as a backup. With the new Mega 360 and clarity of the views, it will rock the trolling world. Check the Mega pics out and speeds they were taken. As your views refresh with 360, you can stay on the schools and follow them by either circling back and forth or figure 8 movement. Here is a pic of the Mega 360 at 2.4 mph of just structure and submerged trees. Way clearer and crisp in detail as I was just testing at different speeds on my first outing with Mega 360 to see how it would look at that speed when long lining cranbaits.

    Granted it’s not the best pic as it can be lightened up by changing your sensitivity settings and contrast and maybe even by changing your refresh rate of the sweep as it was set at a speed of 3, but it gives me a view of of the defined clarity I was searching for at a speed of 2.4 mph for first time in playing with the mega 360. I very seldom troll crankbaits any faster than 2.0 or 2.2. Jigs way way slower at speeds of 0.5 to say 1.1 mph. Can’t wait for spring to use the Mega 360. My trolling motor was maxed out on speed at the time that was taken in about 14 mph wind with lake waves all but whitecapping.
