2. Does Home Port crash a lot for any of you? Mine seems to crash and need to be restarted every time I try certain functions.

BY THE WAY... I worry that I'm kind of hijacking this thread. Should I start a fresh thread, or is this all part of the conversation?

Thanks!

While replaying the recording in HomePort hit PrintScreen on your keyboard when you get to create a screenshot of the shot you want to post. Open any image editing program you have on your computer, like MS Paint. Control V will paste your screenshot. Crop out the unwanted screen capture and save as a jpg. It won't look as good as one directly from the Garmin, but it's better than nothing.

1. For the screenshots, yes, you should be able to pull them off your sd card - just like a regular photo.
2. Unsure. Haven't used homeport enough to matter.
3. ?
Glad to hear you had some improvement!

Thank you so much for that help! I really appreciate it.

Here is a screen shot of fish around pilings in 32' of water. This was my first time recording, and I didn't know I could take a snap of the actual returns, so I had to play the recording, and then take a screenshot from there, These were the fish we were catching, with some nice ones mixed in:

Nice! Glad it's working out for you! What is the slightly curve line, about 5', on the left side?

I'm pretty sure that's my stringer of fish.
I've thought about adding a livewell, but the stringer works fine. But maybe I should now, so it doesn't interfere with my side scanner, ha ha.

Thill - I found a livewell for ya!

A couple side images of crappie hopefully. They weren't biting too great. Managed 11 on a few docks.

Very cold here in upstate sc. Temps in the 20s last nite with highs in the 40s. Marked some fish on docks but they were tight lipped.

Nice pics! That's some warm water, ours is 37°.
