Bottom Return - Use the appearance of the
bottom return to determine bottom hardness.

return than mud and sand because hard

Shadows - Result from a lack of reflected
sonar from a particular area and can be as

help you see the image in 3 dimensions,
oriented in space. You can gain insight into
the actual shape of an object, or the depth
to which it has sunk into the bottom,

shadow. The longer the shadow, the taller
the object. Fish also cast shadows. You can
use the shadow to interpret how close the
fish is to the bottom.
