    See page 69 and 85 for the 2D sensitivity. You can change in X-press menu or your Sonar tab under regular menu.

    On the 898, 998, and 1198 series.... you can change sensitivity for the 2D, DI, SI and also the individual 83 khz beam for 2D. You should be able to change the DI sensitivity on your unit also but it looks like it is doing fine. As long as you can see the fish in all 3 screens your are good to go. If they are showing on DI and SI and not 2D then that sensitivity needs to go up till they do show up. I use the 2D alot to help determine a depth range. It is helpful.

    My 997 has Max and Clear mode

    Good deal.. Good to know the 997 has max mode also.. It wasn't in the manual so I just assumed it wasn't there. It must have been a software upgrade like DI. Hope that helps out...

    Good deal.. If you pay attention to it while trolling it will really help you dial in the depth. People always say 10-12 feet which is pretty accurate but sometimes they are at 6-8 early, then 10-12 mid morning, then 14-16 on bright sunny days. The 2D will help dial that in and give you more bites.

    Use SI to find them and 2D or DI to dial in the depth and you are good to go. Then you just hope they bite or turn the switch.
