I've had my 798ci SI for about a year now and am still trying to learn how to interpret what I see and put it to use. Heres a quote from DoubleGobble that expresses my problem also:

Well, after reading that the other day, I decided I'm going to trust it more: today it paid off. Went crappie fishing today, started scanning along a river channel ledge and spotted some baitfish and then some larger fish. I said to my buddy "there they are". I wheeled the boat around, hoped up on the front deck and the first cast I caught a crappie almost 2lbs. A few cast later, I caught my personal best - a 3lb-2oz mega slab:
We ended up catching 8 big old slabs off that spot including a 2-10 that my buddy caught.
Sorry I didn't get a snapshot of the screen when I saw them but it was very similar to the pics that DoubleGobble posted, just not as many fish.![]()
