    Looks good to me only thing I would do is shorten the distance you are scanning. I usually don't go wider than 75 feet per side. Object are bigger and fish are easier to see.

    Spent a little time in Simulator yesterday working with Sensitivity, Contrast, Switchfire, color palettes, etc. Hope to get back out next week. Weather here sucks right now.

    IMO it's dark because it's on the drop off sloping away. Not sure more sensitivity would help. Very good pick considering that.

    I think you are both right. The shallow side is on the right and deeper side on the left. See this all the time on my deep, clear home lake. At the same time, working the Sensitivity and Contrast should help. I’m getting a break in the weather here tomorrow so I’ll be out fishing and taking a few more pics.
