My home lake is on average anywhere from 25-35 feet deep. There are spots in the lake that can be as deep as 100 ft, BUT, most of the lake is River Channel (Neely Henry Lake, Gadsden, Alabama).

My question is, what should my sensitivity percentage be set to on my Lowrance X102 and Hummingbird 380 depth finders?

Any help would be appreciated.....

Are you having problems. I'm no expert nor pro, I have the 102c and the sensitivity is set high on my unit. I fish the Northeast Cape Fear river and it is 25-35+ feet deep and it works fine set at that level. Try different settings until you find the one that fits you.

Sensitivity is not a constant because of different wind conditions, different oxygen content, different water temps, different water clarity from area to area. What is a good setting on one unit will not necessarily be a good setting on another one even if they are the same brand and model.

Put sens on manual and adjust it as needed to keep the clearest pic.

You may also benefit by trying different levels of noise rejection.

Changing upper and lower limits helps what you see as well as ping speed.

Rarely will one setting last all day long.
