Help with sonar! What am I seeing ?

[Ksam1234]

Hey I’m trying to learn more with my sonar. Can anyone help tell me what I’m seeing here ?

Picture number one is most likely bubbles coming up from bottom depending on how fast you were going. Pic 2 is a tree brushpile or rock pile , my guess is brush. Pic 3 is more bubbles on the left and maybe a ton of baitfish on the bottom right. That or a big grass edge line

Ok thank you! I thought those lines comming up were maybe small fish .. guess I was way wrong lol

There is something in the bottom left corner of the first pic that I didn't originally see. Kind of looks a fish just above a rock on the bottom

Hmm.... I'll bet you guys can actually see the baby's elbow in those ultrasounds too.

 

I look at these picts and see jagged lines. The brush pile maybe, but the rest is just lines to me.

The middle screen shot is a 9' tree and hope you way pointed it.

Top could be few things rising off the bottom, is this a lake with current or a river?

Bottom is similar to the top with a school of small fish.

This is a lake , there isn’t much current.  It does have feeder and outgoing creeks to it though.  And I should have waypointed that brush ? Why so.. sorry still really new to this. I didn’t put any waypoint  .. should I go back and do it or why would you

That 9' tree is very likely a great place to hold bass at some point in time..

Well d**n.. so every time I see something that looks like that.  I should set a waypoint ?

Isolated trees are always good fish holding cover because they are a magnet for baitfish and crawdads. 

Learning to use your sonar means learning how to make way points and return to them.

You can follow your last trip trail in memory to locate that tree. But more importantly the best way to understand what you meter is to go back and fish it, trees don't move.
