    I thought we’d have a little fun…

    I imaged a portion of Wissota that I had never visited previously this week, and saw a set of Side Imaging returns that were new to me. I checked this object (marked by the red arrow) after I imaged it, so I now know what it is.

    My question to you guys is….what do you think it is??

    I’ll reveal this object’s true identity sometime after lunch tomorrow (Friday).

    Nobody’s got it so far.

    Perhaps a hint:

    The maximum depth in this area is 9 feet. The object we’re trying to identify sits in 3-4 feet of water.

    I dont know.

    But it 1) is hard, like steel,concrete, or wood. My guess is it isnt wood. The image looks too bright to be wood. 2) it comes all the way to the surface. although I dont know for a fact that it goes all the way to the bottom.?? 3) it is not one solid piece, the SI can see between them and still give an image of the bank.

    If I had to make a guess I would say it looks like a public fishing pier.

    It looks like some kind of wall structure and part of it caved in.

    That’s easy Jason. I’ve seen many cards like that at the Dr’s office.

    I would say a barbed wire fence,with weeds on it and a part of it has fallen.

    Some sort of structure that has collapsed into the water, maybe a boat house, plus looks like like a dock floating just before you got to it..

    Nobody’s got it yet….how about another hint.

    Wissota’s level fluctuates by about a foot….sometimes up, sometimes down, depending on the electricity generating activities at the dams within the system (Wissota and Jim Falls).

    This image was captured when the water was up.

    If the water were down, the image would appear completely different.

    Now how do you interpret these images again? The black line in the middle……

    How about overhanging tree branches protruding beneath the surface of the water???
