    the sad thing is since I've installed this unit I really haven't actually fished. I ride around really slow scanning the lake lol. I probably haven't made 20 casts all week

    I didn't even take fishing poles the first several times I had my 1197 on the water...

    Are you taking and studying recordings on the unit...??

    yes....definitely the word here is that the crappie are on the bank...we fished the bank and caught a few the other day but i just realized the depths on all those pics. most of them range from 11-16 feet.....my tactic for tomorrow is to go back to these spots since they are now marked and see if those specks are still there and try to catch them in that deeper water vs trying to hit every 4-6 foot bank and if no luck with crappie ill throw a deep crank for bass over those trees

    also im not seeing much shadow around any of those fish so that means they are very close to bottom correct?

    Sometimes fish shadows are hard to see...especially if the Contrast or Sharpness is higher causing the image to be a little "grainy"...

    Generally a fish right on the bottom will show a shadow very close to the white speck...
    And a fish higher off bottom will show a shadow farther away from the white speck...

    Here's a depiction showing how fish at various depths create their respective shadow...
