Mine lasted less than one season before the screen went to crap. I didn't do anything to it. I installed LEDs above it but that might affect it when we are moving, not standing still. Today I raised the transducer, but again that should only affect it while moving. Very aggravating that in less than one season the screen went to crap. It reads temp and speed ok. Depth is hit and miss.

I have a cheap Lowrance with GPS cant remember which one but it costs less than $150. Last year it worked great until it didn't. I get water temp, speed, and depth (sometimes) but the screen went to crap. Last year it would show a stump and fish now it shows garbage. I just raised the transducer, that might help, but I'm going to try a hard reset. I don't use the gps anyway but I do like to see my images. Its not even a year old.

These units are unreliable, poorly designed, and not the least bit intuitive. The manuals cover a dozen models so half of it never applies. When Lowrance cannot design a transducer plug that siimply works causing tons of grief for users and calls to the manufacturer you know they don't care about design. My 30 year old suction cup battery operated fish finder is more reliable at finding depth and fish.

How accurate is the fish reveal feature? Basically is it gonna have me frustrated fishing for ghost fish that arnt actually there? My hook 2 4x "fish id" was always telling me i was pretty much surrounded by fish but whenever I tried jigging the depths it showed fish i never ever did get one and wouldnjust resort to bottom fishing for lingcod instead of attempting to jig for salmon .
@nightanddaymarine8823
@nightanddaymarine8823 19 күн бұрын
The fish arches are a lot more accurate. When using fish ID, a lot of the fish it shows are tiny fish that u aren't going to be able to catch or just junk in the water. With the arches u can get a much better idea of bigger fish that are worth your time. For the most part. Altho it can take some time to get the hang of cuz some small fish can still make a larger arch by slowly swimming thru the middle of your sonar beam. But it is less likely.
@nightanddaymarine8823
@nightanddaymarine8823 19 күн бұрын
But the great thing about fish reveal is that the downscan is more accurate at locating larger object beneath you, and then if it overlays a fish arch on top of it which is normally caused by a fishes oxygen bladder, u get double the accuracy for finding catchable fish.

@nightanddaymarine8823 ordered the reveal 7triple shot with maps a few days ago. Can't wait to get it installed and go try it out. Only thing I'm worried about is my outboard possibility blocking view of sidescan for transducer on one side. With the triple shot transducer using side scan how direct line of sight does it need on either side? Or does it shoot down on more of a 45° angle?

You shouldn't have to. Make sure your transducer plug is pushed in as far as it can go before turning it on. And you might also try a soft reset and see if that helps. Also if you are turning it on before launching your boat into the water than can also be a cause.

I would first check out the free mapping software on genesismap.com. there are a ton of preloaded maps done by recreational fisherman like you that you can download per lake for free. They are high definition maps for the most part. Typically some of the best you can find if it's a lake that's already been done. Other than that u can check out the cmaps insight pro maps. I wouldn't recommend the HD maps. They don't work too well on that display.

It's probably the best video I've ever seen on how to work a fish finder. Most of the things you explained were things thatother videos skip and just assume you already know, which is never the case for me. So thank you. The only thing i still cant find a good video on is how to tell what you are seeing on the screen. And most importantly of all, where the stuff on the screen is in relation to your boat. For example, if I see fish on the screen... how would you know where to cast your line to cast to the fish you are seeing? Im not sure if anymone knows for sure? As i have never seen an explanation to this question yet.
@nightanddaymarine8823
@nightanddaymarine8823 Ай бұрын
Honestly that's just a really difficult question to answer. Some of it revolves around how fast u are traveling. The other is the fact that it's taking a 3 dimensional area and compressing it into a 2D image. The cone your transducer is picking up is compressed into a flat screen. So technically depending on your depth, the fish can be a certain amount of feet to the right or left of you. Which is really were the side scan comes into play to help determine which side of the boat they are on. It's hard to teach on a video. It's mostly something u can only learn thru trial and error.

If you are not able to turn the sonar back on from the Power button menu, check to see if your getting water temp. If not, check and make sure your transducer is plugged in far enough. Make sure all three rings on the plug are pushed all the way in.
