I thought this was a pretty clear image..I have been using the Tan pallette for some time now. Might have to start mixing in a few Blue shots.

Looks good to me...

Looks like some fish in the structure at 15 feet. Am I correct?
I am waiting on a new Lowrance HDS Touch screen. Should be here next week. Been playing with one at the store, can't wait to try it live on the boat.
Nice snap shot. Like the blue, may have to try that as well. I agree on fish at 15' and then some fish or tree/shrub at the base on the right side. Again, nice shot.
Yes, that was fish. Snapshot taken was with HDS 7 TouchQuote:

I like blue.
Many of us like blue.
Welcome to "Team Downscan Blue"
Don nice shot but i bet those fish are about 5 feet deep instead of 15 feet deep
ALL of my good DI screen shots are in Blue !! When I use the other color palettes, the multi-color images are confusing (like a 2d sonar screen shot :Rofl ) or there's just too much "stuff" on the screen.
... cp :kewl
What makes you think they're at 5 feet and not 15?Quote:

I like the green. Might try it next..
Where have you been, G-S?
I mix blue in some on ds, but use the brown 90% of the time. Here's you a couple green ones Don.

Thanks Justin..The older my eyes get the more I need the brighter colors.
I agree with Gene. A simple analogy is: if you are on roof of your house looking down , you mostly see your roof. If you are in a tree next to your house, you clearly see the sides. Keep this in mind.Quote:

Good stuff on youtube about sonar of all types.Quote:

Nice pics. I have used green for a few years and now with the HDS 7 I have found I like the blue also.
Kinda in a lull and I just don't have the passion I had, might be the heat & humidity here giving me a moral and physical beat down??? :cheers2Quote:
