Re: humminbird 565

Howdy Locknut. For the most part, there are not too many Humminbird enthusiasts here. Too bad you don't have an Eagle, Garmin, or Lowrance. Then you would have a gaggle of responses. At any rate, no matter what brand, two hundred or two thousand dollars, don't expect to see clear, clean arches. Most of what you see in publications or advertisements are simulations. What you will most likely see are a few pixels or partial arches when a fish crosses through the transducer cone. As you get more responses to your post, someone will pass on a link to a web-site that will give more detailed information concerning arches, fish I.D. mode as well as other related info. Good luck.

Well Locknut, it's been 24 hours since I posted and like I said, it's pretty slim pickin's to find Humminbird enthusiasts here. Log on to the Lowrance and/or Humminbird web-site where you will find links to great info about the basics of fish finder operations. Why not do a search at this web-site about Humminbirds? Perhaps you will find what you're looking for. Happy fish finding. DuPont
