Side imaging shows really nice images but how about the real deal and see what it really looks like.
Lowrance side scan images.
This aqua vu footage shows what the tree looks like with the rocks nearby.
Genesis live real time mapping.
For those who have logged sonar with a side scan reefmaster can help you open and export it as a map.
Fish are easier to find and easier to identify with fishreveal which combines on one screen the proven performance of lowrance chirp sonar and the high resolution images of fish holding structure from downscan imaging.
You should also avoid any form of cavitation which can hamper the quality of the images.
The side imaging or structure scan.
The image now becomes your map.
I can then set a drift and rig the rods for how the fish are holding in that moment rather than blind casting to a spot.
It should be mounted on the side of the boat without any obstructions blocking the visuals of the side imaging transducer.
You can mount it on a motor using the transducer brackets.
The side scanning sonar affords me the ability to approach a structure and scan until i find whether the fish are holding in the shallows or the depths and on which side.
Fish targets light up your display.

The structure map helps you capture very crisp images.
Interesting detail at lowrance the probe is delivered separately so count more expensive for a complete kit.
So much cheaper at humminbird unless we use several sonar connected ethernet.
This powerful fishfinding tool combines the proven target identification of lowrance chirp sonar with the high resolution images of bottom detail and structure from downscan imaging.
Sonar is a massively cool technology and to me side scanning and down scanning are two even cooler technologies.
Check out this breakdown active i.
That gives you the ultimate fishing view allowing you to target fish and get the best view of how they are relating to structure without the need for a chirp.
You can as well decide to share it with the hook.
The lowrance structure map can be accessed on the carbon and hds.
Basically the side imaging transducer has to be mounted externally.
Humminbird is integrated while at lowrance you have to buy a particular box.
