Gain about half way and continue clicking the range switch to the right
until it does show a bottom signal. Once you find the bottom signal, line
up the leading edge with the closest white depth mark on the scale. Refer
to figure J and K. Multiply this reading by the depth range setting.
SEEING FISH
Refer, again, to figure J. If the range setting is X1 then the fish is just
over a foot above the bottom. We know it’s a fish because it is a signifi-
cant target that is not attached to the bottom. The target that appears just
above this fish is smaller and there is no red. Here is where target iden-
tification gets a bit trickier. Since we do not know the position of the tar-
gets in the cone of sound, we cannot readily identify it. For example, the
green target at 12 feet could be a small piece of floating debris or small
baitfish in the center of the cone. It could also be a large fish out at the
very edge of the cone.
In the weeds, spotting fish is more difficult. Figure K shows a bottom
at 8 feet (X1). The weeds extend from the bottom up to about 5 feet. Notice
