Fish Schools
A fish school appears as a mass of echoes on the screen. The
color of the mass shows the density of fish schools on the sonar
beam. To find distribution and center point of a fish school, try
several different tilt angles.
(A) Sea surface fish
Tilt angle: -5
°
to 10
°
(B) Midwater, bottom fish
Tilt angle: 30
°
or more
Fish echo which appears before seabed can be detected.
Tilt angle: -0
°
to 20
°
Fish echo which appears together with
or after seabed can be detected.
