Mayo.
bottom is 11 foot. Top of guard rail is at 4 feet.
I hope that is off the beaten path or somewhere where one would not be on plane.
That would have to have been exposed before the water came up

Agree with bh. Yeah, honestly there's not much you can setup with Lowrance since it's all automatic with a few minor adjustments. If you have bad images then you have a bad install or a bad transducer.
I wonder how many props & lower units that guard rail has claimed victim to??? Its far from automatic, I don't run one setting on auto. Running on auto is the worst and most false reading you can get. Ok Lowrance gurus, go ahead and tell us all what you think you can change? The automatic statement was true 10 years ago, now it doesn't apply. Scroll speed? Only on 2d sonar. Sensitivity? Only on 2d sonar. Surface clarity? Only on 2d sonar. Color palette? Yeah ok, 2d and LSS. Oh wait, contrast? Yeah that must be what you guys are changing.  I sure don't see you guys in the general equipment page helping other Lowrance users out with your infinite knowledge.  Heck, you 2 gurus didn't even share your settings with these other guys, might be because you don't really know them though I suppose.

Yes it was off the beaten path but I was still surprised when I saw it. I've never been to this area before. I marked it obviously and no I would not run the area I was in and its not in a running lane. This is the second one I've found on Fork.
I was kinda busy and not paying much attention to my graphs coming out of the area and when I got the chance I scrolled back and saw the bridge. Because of this I wasn't dialing them in like I would normally coming out but you can clearly see what's going on.
Nice image B. Hollingshead and it takes a little work to make them shine...

To ?. It's not what I think I can change I do change it.

You show me a menu to change the scroll speed of SI/DI and show me a sensitivity setting on SI/DI and I'll send you $500. You can change nothing because you know nothing about your graph. Now if you had a Humminbird then yes, you can change those items. Not so on a Lowrance.
Oh forget about it, not worth arguing with someone about. Tell me your thoughts on chirp and what transducer you feel would be superior to use, to get the best chirp available? What frequencies do you find to be the most beneficial while using chirp?
