Side imaging and shallow water. Perfect combo.

[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 467144, member: 9169"] I get little use of of my SI (humminbird helix) on the river while smallmouth fishing. I know some guys use it to find underwater ledges, holes, etc. and maybe I need to give that a try. It just seems unproductive to me to be eyeing the sonar while floating down river casting. My next boat will just be sonar/DI and GPS. I use the GPS way more than anything else for marking waypoints (hot spots). Not sure if you're trying to get a good SI image while on plane, or if you're referring to a sonar readout. but SI image on plane will never happen. Chart speed should match boat speed in MPH for a good SI readout. [/QUOTE]
