I look at the screen and have no idea what im seeing. No idea how to set it up properly. These things arent easy to use. Funniest thing tho. I was still hooked up to my dock and earlier had watched a youtube vid that said the thumbnail shapes are fish. I turn on the finder and cannot believe how many fish i see. Big ones. Was like hell ill fish right here. Lol then noticed it was on simulation. Talk about disappointed.

So when you take your buddy fishing put it on Retail Simulator. If they don’t get any fish you can say well you seen them all.

I have same finder. Watch online or go to retailers you purchased it at usually they will teach you about it. The guy I bought mine from at store said to bring unit to store and can help me program it.

Welcome to the stage Bdt. That's a good one. I have a garmin so not much help but you'll find a lot of great information on YouTube. Good luck on your fishing show pictures when you can πŸ˜πŸ‘

The best videos I found on YouTube on how to use your fish finder are at Fish The Moment. πŸ™‚
