    I’m sure it’s been covered, an you provide a link? Need to align the transducer with the arrow. Thanks!

    to be able to see baits.

    You mean align it with the arrow on top of the trolling motor, or the picture of boat on top right of screen?

    Arrow on trolling motor. So you guys are able to use the graph indicator? Maybe I need to look at it again. Guess habit at looking at the trolling motor arrow.

    Well the LS transducer should be aimed straight in line with your trolling motor and arrow on trolling motor should be pointed straight too.

    I don't use the one on screen as you have to calibrate it, and it's never accurate for me.

    ^^^^^ It should be inline with the trolling motor barrel. I've tried several times to calibrate it and the arrow on the graph is close, but still off

    I have never been able to keep the arrow on the Garmin unit aligned properly. I've always used the head of the trolling motor for alignment and now I just use my feet.
