The next article in my series of introductory pieces on Humminbird’s Down Imaging is now available:
Exploring the baitfish-gamefish connection with Humminbird Down Imaging
It is my hope that these articles will help shorten the learning curve for new Down Imaging users, as that feature becomes available in just a few short weeks!
Jason,
How is the transducer mounted on the trolling motor going to effect the DI readings? For SI I know it’s bad news unless looking under docks from the shallow side. But my gut feel is that the Down Imaging will not be affected too much.
I suspect that as long as you’re moving in a reasonably straight path at reasonably constant speed, you should be able to produce some sharp, clear Down Images. If you’re changing direction or speed constantly, you’ll still generate a Down Image, but the sharpness and clarity of its features will certainly be impacted.
Thanks Jason,
I know this is a real pain what I’m about to ask, but it certainly would answer a LOT of questions coming in at the moment.
Any chance of strapping an SI transducer to your trolling motor and doing a couple of Down Imaging screenshots for us?
