Sonar Signal Interpretation
When you monitor your flasher screen for signs of fish, there are three signal
band characteristics to watch for: movement, color and thickness.
Signal band movement
In a stationary setting like ice fishing, the bottom, structure and cover
will show on the flasher screen as stationary bands of color. Signals
between the surface and the bottom that come and go or move up and
down (even slightly) will be fish that have appeared inside the sonar
signal cone.
Signal band color
The color of the signal bands correspond to both fish size and their posi-
tion in the sonar signal cone. Black and blue signals tend to be smaller
fish, or fish that are at the outside edge of the sonar cone. These
smaller or more distant fish return weaker echoes.
Red signals are much larger fish, or fish that are in the center of the
sonar cone, almost directly below the transducer. They return the
strongest echoes.
Signals that are yellow and some other color result from mid-sized fish
that are in a transition zone between the center and outer edges of the
sonar cone. They represent medium-strong echoes.
As a fish moves through part of the signal cone, the signal may change
from black to blue to green or yellow then back again. The signals may
appear to move up slightly and then back down, even if the fish doesn't
actually change depth. This is caused by the relative distance from the
transducer to the fish as it passes by the transducer.
