In other words, using SI in 25ft of water would i be able to see fish 25ft to the side of the boat in the black areas on my screen ?

Hope this makes sense. Never heard it discussed.


Thanks

So I’m no pro but let me try at this with what I know. So if u set the range at 100 feet on both sides and your in 25 foot of water, your only scanning 75 foot out the sides. The 25 foot down is part of the range. The black column on the SI screen is below the boat/straight down. Hope this helps and I think this is what your asking. Again I’m no pro on this!
