Sometimes, you may achieve better images as you decrease the chart
speed to match the speed of your boat.
If you are at anchor, ice fishing or fishing from a dock, experiment with
a chart speed of 25 percent. If you are drifting slowly, try a chart speed
of 50 percent. When you are stationary and a fish swims through the

line that more closely resembles a regular fish return.
To adjust Chart Speed, repeatedly press

or less). This frequency is the best choice for about 80 percent of the
