Fish Symbols—allows you to determine how the graph shows
underwater targets and background information. If fish symbols
are set to Off, the unit shows all available information about the
underwater environment. If a fish symbol is selected, the graph
shows only the information related to that symbol. Actual fish
returns can not always appear as perfect arches (like in Simulator
Mode), due to the speed, fish orientation, or other conditions.
