I've had the fishmark 320 portable for roughly 4 years with some regular use. I've been overly happy with it so far. It would mark anything and everything in the water column. I've marked 1/8th ounce jigs in 35 ft and watched fish come off the bottom to hit it like a flasher.
My most recent trip to Canada it did very poorly. It would mark the bottom inside of 70 ft of water. But it very rarely marked a fish. If it did it was not as precisely defined as usual.
I was trying to troll for lake trout and sometimes in 60 ft of water i would see what looked like arches well below the bottom in 90 ft of water. I made sure the settings were correct without the fish ID on.
Troubleshooting: Where should I start? the transducer or the head unit?

We're usually fully stocked but you caught me on a bad night!
Tuesday night is usually "board meeting" night if you know what I mean. Stop in and have a tasty beverage some Tuesday night after these holidays are over and things get back to normal.
Im sure I will be back soon my kids go through the pork burgers pretty quick. Suzy knows who I am she can help ya. Cant ever turn down a nice cold Busch Light.
Nice to finally meet you tonight. Make sure you tell me who you are again next time you come in. I will probably forget.
Let me know when you are dropping in again and I'll make sure we have more of those beverages around!
