What Am I Seeing? Lowrance Hds 9 Touch

[cjam93]

Hey guys so I have been fishing for about 3 years. Fishing deep for me has always meant pulling up to different points and start casting. I never really rode over points looking for fish first, trying to mark schools, and anything else. I fished blind you could say. So lately I have been watching a lot of videos on how to find schools on points mark them with a buoy or waypoint then fish them. I tried it today, but ended up a bit confused. I am using a gen 2 HDS 9 Touch. I know this is a lot of questions, I really appreciate the help, thanks for taking the time to read this! I apologize ahead of time for the quality of two of the pictures, I ran out of storage on my depthfinder and had to use my phone to take a picture. Anyways here are the pictures:

Mainly I want to know if what you see in these pictures would make you stop and fish in that spot? In the first picture I found bait, but I cant tell if there are bass with the bait. The second picture I have the same question. I believe there are bass there, but being they are in the middle of the water column would you fish for them, and how? 

 

 

 

The third picture I wasnt sure if that was bait, crappie, or what, and if there are bass around. I am having a lot of trouble seeing a school of bait fish and telling if bass are there as well or not.

 

 

The final picture I just am confuse to what it is haha. I saw in a webinar online that this specific color scheme turns hard bottom green on sonar. So what would you think the bottom orange and red spot is? I would have guessed a rock but its not hard and green so Im not sure.

I'm still new to learning how to tweak sonar, so I may be off, but this is what I've found. Turning the sensitivity up will give you a better view of the shapes, though clusters can still beconfusing. I like playing with it to find the best balance I can. Usually I'll run it from 75%-80% and find what gives me the best look.

Thanks for the pictures that helps!  Ill also try turning up my sensitivity. Would you have stopped to fish any of those spots from what you can see in the screen shots?
