As LR77 stated, there are some very good videos out there. Charles purchased an instructional video from Dr. Jason Halfen, the Technological Angler. One of those warm days over Christmas I spent over three hours one day playing the DVD on my laptop while sitting in the boat. I would play a section, hit pause, go through that information on the Onix, then hit play again. You have to leave the fishing rods at home and put in the hours necessary to master the electronics.

We have the Humminbird 360 on the boat and I am not happy with the results I am getting. I think part of the reason is my settings are not the best. I literally downloaded the manual from Humminbird and started reading it earlier this week. A 597 can help you locate fish if you master how to get the most you can out of it. Charles and I started fishing a little over a year and a half ago with the new technology. He can affirm that there were a number of days at the beginning that he fished out the back while I sat in the driver's seat with the manual trying to learn all the technology. You can tell from my screenshots that I have fine-tuned the basics, but I still have a long way to go in completely mastering the technology.
