Fish finder confusion

That’s super helpful. I was literally about to give up on half the features because I couldn’t figure them out. I’ll download the manual for my model and see if I can actually get my money’s worth out of it.

I thought I knew how to use my Humminbird fish finder until I realized I was only scratching the surface of its capabilities. Most of the menu options felt cryptic, and I wasn’t sure what half the icons meant. I decided to use this site and download the full manual for my model, and honestly, it transformed my fishing trips. It explained in detail how to adjust beam frequency for different depths, how to set up contour mapping for unfamiliar waters, and how to use split-screen mode to monitor multiple views at once. The manual even gave tips for optimal transducer placement, which fixed some odd readings I was getting. Now I can set depth alarms, customize display colors, and spot fish more accurately. Before, I was basically using it as a glorified depth gauge — now it’s an actual tool that gives me a big advantage on the water.

I recently got a Humminbird fish finder for my boat, but half the menu options don’t make sense to me. I’m sure I’m missing out on features like mapping and sensitivity settings. Any good source for a proper Humminbird manual?
