You've got multi specie in your images. It is only a guess as to what but you for sure have some large fish in there...possibly hybrids. Also looks like some crappie in your last di shot where they are on top of one another....largemouth won't do that....but yellow bass will. If those are yellow bass they are nice ones. Also on the first di image looks like you have some fish holding on the bottom. What size screen do you have on your unit?
What a huge difference DI vs standard sonar. I know when i see a fairly solid line a foot or so off bottom its almost always gills or yellows. Ofcourse with the DI that solid line would be clearer individual marks.
Saving my pennies.....saving my pennies! Lol

You all might have seen this shot in an earlier post but it shows the fish on the bottom in all three modes...di...si...and 2d. I thought maybe walleye...maybe even big browns but certainly not Gills. When you start using imaging units you will pick up real quick how the size of those "grains of rice" in di and si mode relate to the size of the fish. I was very lucky to get thoe fish in all 3 modes. Just was in right place at right time and everything was I think set to default. Lately I have been playing around with the green color palette for imaging. It has a lot of promise on bright sunny days allowing you to see the fish better on the screen.....although it looks a little funny it does make the fish pop out.
Thats so beneficial having those split screens. From a fish standpoint on those images, i dont care for SI. the DI has crystal clear definition to me....but the SI shows very clearly what the bottom looks like and what the fish are relating to and that can be invaluble in some situations.
Good stuff!
That would be neat to take a SI unit into a river and buzz it along the shoreline and let it shoot up into some of the fallen trees in the water in 10-14ft. See what kind of beasties are hiding out of reach! Probably be a great tool for catfisherman in hunting out the best sunken timber spots.
