I fish mainly for walleyes, and am new to using and interpreting a graph. I recently bought a Ray Marine L470 graph. It's a very nice of equipment. I have the fish symbols turned off, and sensitivity on auto. I was wondering why I am not getting the classic "hook shape" echos on fish; all I seem to get are these odd cigar shapes, some big some small, some suspended, some hugging the bottom (over sandy/gravel bottom, for example). I am pretty confident these are fish, but not certain. Can anyone help me out here and tell me what is going on?
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
