2.23 Interpreting the Horizontal Display

This section provides information necessary for interpreting the horizontal
display.

2.23.1 Sample echo displays

Bottom echoes

When the tilt angle is changed, the bottom echo illustrated below will appear on
the display. When the tilt is decreased (toward 0

°)

, the bottom trace becomes

wider and weaker. By observing the bottom condition on the display, the skipper
can prevent net damage.

(A) Flat bottom

Tilt angle: 10˚ to 15˚

(B) Flat bottom

Tilt angle: 20˚ or more

Bottom

Shallow bottom
is displayed in
a strong color
and with a
short tail.

Bottom is displayed
narrower and in
stronger colors when
compared to (A).

Decreased tilt angle
Only half of
vertical beam width
captures the bottom.

The deeper, sloping
bottom echo is displayed
in a weak color and
with a long tail.
