Hennessy Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Hi guys i recently bought a 4.3 clark abalone, that im fitting out for inshore/estuary fishing, my problem is i installed a lowrance x135 sounder, followed all instructions, mounted transducer on transom, took it out fishing on the weekend, everything seemed to be working perfect except the bottom is always really jagged, even when i zoom right out it still is lumpy even when i know im over flat sand, my question is, is this caused by the lumpy swell moving the boat up and down or havent i installed it right? im pretty sure its the swell so can this be fixed so i can find ledges and reef or do i just have to put up with it? cheers Hennessy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hennessy Posted October 3, 2006 Author Share Posted October 3, 2006 gday mate was fishing water from about 40-80 feet and swell was about 1 metre maybe a bit more. cheers Hennessy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Big-Banana Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Turn the scroll on faster so the swell doesnt affect the bottom reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
