i also had the same issue, but with an lcx 111 and lcx 25c. It only happened when I had the units networked, and like you, had a very difficult time getting answers to this issue. First, un-network them as Bondy mentions, and check your unit to be sure you are not getting the cross signal anymore. What is happening is your front unit is showing the bottom on the sonar screen that it is picking up from its own transducer, but the digital reading from the back unit. Watch your front unit while you are running from spot to spot, it will be showing the digital depth from your rear unit even without the front transducer in the water. You need to get into the menu option where you can adjust the settings on the nmea 2000 networked units and be sure that the front unit is showing the rear 111 in the network but that the rear one doesn't show any data on the front unit, or vice versa depending upon which is master/slave for the configuration. I had the issue about 4 years ago, and have a different front unit now, or I could talk you through it a bit easier. There was a thread on that topic back then, here, as well.
