Charles just got the boat back last Sat. from the shop and I still have a lot to learn about the new SI and DI. Some features are still not working correctly, like you will see there is no depth on the following screenshots, although I have it turned on. I haven't had time to work with things like sensitivity, contrast and sharpness to make the shots better. The color looks like brown, but on the boat it is amber and the best to use during bright daylight use.

I'll give a little commentary along the way, although there is still a lot for me to learn. One of the things I do is take screenshots so I can study them at home. It is just easier for me to see and study the details on my computer in my home office than on the boat.

We saw lots of baitfish today and you can see some in this picture.

Bass guys gotta love the details of structure with the new technology.

Wish the boat were over to the left some--see some crappie swimming over there (or at least I think they are crappie).

Good example of not much going on in DI/2D, but SI shows this is a fairly active area.

Surprised I don't see many fish around this structure.

Good ol' 2D--lot's of nice arches in this shot. As you can see by the time, we were packing up to leave and would have been nice to fish around here a little longer.

Too bad the boat isn't 50' to the left. Somebody would get a bite going through that many fish.

Stump field with fish in the area.

Not a good sign--round baitballs like this means no predator fish. Like to see those irregular shapes so I know feeding fish are in the area.

Got to study this one some more. Caught some undersized crappie in this area and this may be what is on the screen.

I think there are two different varieties of fish. The two schools look different. It could be one is gizzard shad (little larger body) and the other threadfin shad. Could be crappie--just not sure.
