I'm still not very comfortable interpreting 2D images but this came across my Lowrance unit one day and it got my attention. In these screen shot images, it appears to me to be a bunch of fish (crappie or sand bass or both I'm assuming) feeding on a large school of bait fish. Is that what y'all see too or is it something else. I definitely stopped to fish it but didn't get narry a bite. But again that could just be a lack of ability on my part.

Is it possible to tell if these are crappie or sand bass or both?

I see at least 40-50 fish and theyve got that bait ball all busted up.

No sir. Just have to drop a shiner or a jig and find out what they are.

are you sure that you stopped and fished at the same spot where you got this screenshot and fishing depth is key for crappies as well.
