Not too cheap if you positively ID those fish. It came on my

The sonar we had allowed us to see the actual fish's outline very
clearly
and see what type of fish. Small northerns and walleye were in 10 ft.,
bigger catfish were in 15 ft., and the really big bass were in 25 ft.
All
suspended in 40 ft. of water. Only a $159 sonar, too. Can't find it in
the stores anymore. Best little sonar we had then.



Nothing wrong with a cheap sonar if you adjust it for what you want. I
use a $99 Garmin on the front of my little boat. It probably sees more
use than any of my other more expensive graphs. Oh, I turn them on,
but I use my little boat for exploring. Usually in the big boat I know
where I am going, and just use the graph to verify.

Been searching on Google patents for this machine but have not found the
exact one yet. Several are close but read like they colorize the fish
in a certain manner but do not create an exact outline that you could
ID the species on the screen from.

FYI
