Oh yeah! I have learned so much from your sonar videos, love em.

[@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS]

Thanks Bill!!! 😁😁😁🙏🙏. The last half of the video has all the newest stuff like Simrad 😁👍Active Target live sonar.

[@billreddochoutdoors5968]

@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS I don’t get to spend a lot of time on the water looking at mine so it helps to be able to watch the sonar videos again and again with all the explanation that you share so when I do get to look at mine it makes sense. I go through a refresher course pretty often so I don’t forget 👊

You did not mention ALWAYS bringing a box of doughnuts when going fishing. I think maybe it is required by law?? 🙃 Great video. Thank you.

[@bradmiller3557]

I have a Simrad in my Bennington Tri-toon. When using the chart, the contour lines are black and the background is dark blue…..difficult to read. How do I change the blue to grey or something light so the depth contours are more visible. Thanks, Brad

[@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS]

@@bradmiller3557 on your sonar page hit the menu in upper right corner then “advanced” then “palette’ 👍👍

[@LBINICK]

U prefer yellow red palette over standard blue. Any specific reason?

[@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS]

Absolutely. I know it doesn’t sound smart to have yellow on white, but I swear it’s the best palette for clarity and contrast. I use some custom pallets too. If you go to my Simrad playlist and watch the last 2 or 3 short videos you can see the pallet I built. It’s basically the same colors as this one, but the white is replaced with medium blue Let me know what you think. Thanks brother!!❤️🙏👍

[@LBINICK]

I trust U. Gonna try this palette on my Garmin.

[@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS]

@@LBINICK let me know how you like it 👍👍
