Location: Elk River, Minnesota | Hi everyone,
Looking at electronics it seems that there is more and more things coming and one I am intrigued by, but not sold on yet is side scan imaging. I have a hummingbird 899 unit on the boat I have not used yet, and am curious if the side scan feature is really worth having. It is currently on the helm, but am thinking of moving it to the bow as it might have some compatibility items with an older model Terrova with I-pilot. I have yet to play with anything as I have not taken delivery of the rig yet. I don't believe this is a high definition side scan either...I believe it is just a sonar side scan of some sort. I am completely unfamiliar with the hummingbird unit.
For those who use side scan, can you describe how you apply it to your fishing techniques? If you have pictures, etc. that can help supply a better idea, all the better...
Thanks much in advance!!
Steve
