Fish ID
Displays sh echoes as sh symbols instead of
sh arches with or without depth. This makes
it easier to recognize sh on the sonar display.
Symbols — places a sh symbol where a
sh is detected.
Depths places depths above each sh
detected; helps gauge the distance from each
sh symbol to the boat.
Both — turns on both Symbols and Depths.
To select a Fish ID option:
1. Highlight Fish ID and press ENTER.
2. Select Symbols, Depths or Both and press ENTER.
