Nice shots....congrats on your catch. juice....once you use the si for a while you don't miss much. You learn real quick what you are looking at with just a glance. I have spent the last four months learning bluegill habits on different lakes with different type bottoms. When using si you have to be moving...and you do if you want a good pic of the lay of the bottom and structure. But knowing how Doppler shift works I knew that if I was sitting still and fish swam through my si beam there would be a Doppler shift and those fish would show up. Well today I tested out my theory.....paddled out to the deep water at Laurel Hill and just sat there. Wasn't long and here they came......a big school of Gills. nailman...good job staying on those fish...it is not easy to follow the school sometimes...and in a kayak you can lose contact quick and wear yourself out....LOL. But that is the good thing about si...the area of coverage is so wide you cruise around a little and find some more.
