WATER TEMPERATURE AND THERMOCLINES Waler temperature has an important-if not controlling-influence upon the activities of all fish. Fish are cold blooded and their bodies are always the temperature of the surrounding waler. During lhe winter, colder water slows down their metabolisrri.
With high sensitivity settings, a second bottom echo (second echo) may appear. This is normal. It's caused by the returning signal reflecting off the surface of the water.
Both 8 degree and 20 degree transducers give accurate bottom read- ings, even though the bottom signal is much wider on the 20 degree model. This is because you are seeing more of the bottom. Remem- ber, the shallow edge of the signal shows you the true depth.
RANGE TRANSDUCERS AND CONE ANGLES The range automatically changes to keep the bottom signal on the display when the unit is in automatic. The range cannot be changed when the unit is in the automatic mode. The range can be changed in manual mode. There are six ranges available: 0-5, 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180 feet.

FISH I.D. The Fish 1.0. feature is automatically on when the unit is first turned on. The computer inside the unit analyzes all echoes, filtering out unwanted signals. It helps eliminate surface clutter, thermoclines, and other un- desirable signals. The remaining suspended targets are usually fish.
