scrutch Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 These are actually from Barkley, not Kentucky sorry bout that. I passed within a few inches of barge moorings to see if I could mark some fish stacked up behind them. The dam had 10 gates open which created a pretty strong current and the fish were hanging out in the current breaks behind them. If you look closely you can see the fish. Interesting question though... Why did the LEFT side show an echo as well? I passed by them on the right only. You'll notice that there's a strong echo on the right side and a weaker one on the left. Obviously there's nothing on the left so why is that reflection there? Quote
BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted May 7, 2011 BassResource.com Administrator Posted May 7, 2011 You answered your own question. You were "within inches" of the target. Therefore, the echo was so strong it was picked up by the other sensor. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted May 8, 2011 Super User Posted May 8, 2011 The SI beams overlap and anything in the water column below the boat is shown on both sides. Quote
scrutch Posted May 8, 2011 Author Posted May 8, 2011 The SI beams overlap and anything in the water column below the boat is shown on both sides. Technically, it was never BELOW the boat. It was six inches off the starboard side. Basically the same as passing very close by a steel seawall. It's a vertical face. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted May 8, 2011 Super User Posted May 8, 2011 Since the left side beam can "see" to the right of center and the right side beam can "see" to the left of center, an image close to the boat can be seen on both SI returns. The SI side opposite of an object is a weaker representation as shown in your snapshot. The 2D beam picked it up too and it wasn't directly under the transducer. If you would like a cleaner looking 2D image, try the pallet 1 setting and turn on White Line. Quote
scrutch Posted May 9, 2011 Author Posted May 9, 2011 I see Wayne... makes sense. Thanks for the info. Quote
