Looking for guidance from the guys that know.
If looking for bluegill beds boat sitting in 8' scanning toward the bank with a G1 helix 10 . If using full screen si how far to the side can beds with fish on them be identified ?

With fish? Probably not much over 75 feet unless there are a bunch of big gills. But you should be able to see the beds over 100 ft on the range. I don't panfish too much, but I usually have to be fairly close to see them.
Yeah, bluegill beds look like a bombing range. Cant miss them.

Thanks Wayne.
Looks like 60-70 ft is probably max.
I'm getting ready to start looking for beds .
Should I use 455 or 800 KHz ?

Ha so that's what those are..... I just fished yesterday with my new 9 gen 2 mega and saw that on the screen. Had no clue what those could be. Thought maybe it was waves in the sand with leaves filling in the voids. Wow mega Is awesome........
This one from a 1198 will make you want a MEGA or SOLIX unit....LOL
