sure. I can do that and will post some more. I'm learning how to get them out of my Humminbird and onto the computer and then into my photobucket account. The photo forum will work too. I've yet to work with that yet. Just haven't figured out that it was there. I'm getting old and senile. LOL.
There are some other fishing forums that specialize in these Sidescanning stuff. And they have a whole lot of pictures or snap shots of different stuff that they see under the water with SI.
Back around 2005 or so when Humminbird First Came out with this I knew it was going to be a great thing for the fisherman. I couldn't afford the first units nor can I afford the 1198 higher priced units. I'm hoping that eventually the prices will come down to where everyone can buy one. They started making smaller and cheaper models and so I finally bought one. I have a lot of fun just looking at the bottom of lakes as I'm very interested in topography and how the fish relate to changes in the bottom. I read about this structure fishing stuff as a young man in the Fishing facts Magazines and learned a lot about this stuff from those magazines.
I also had to make my own topo maps in my Geology Class and in an ecology class at
Purdue. So I enjoy mapping and this type of thing. I just wish I had more ambition and patience to to more of this.
Peter you should check out Pat Hahs's web site and his www.hydrographix.com. I think that's the right web address. He's done a lot of good mapping of KY and Barkley Lakes using a towed array sonar. That's basically what the US Navy uses on their nuclear submarines. Only they used them to hear other submarines that may be behind them and or following them in their baffles. Pretty cool stuff. I've had a keen interest in submarine warfar ever since I was younger. I read some cool books about the WWII submarine service and got interested in submarines a long time ago. And sonar is what submarines do a lot of. If only they could trolll some crank baits behind those subs. LOL
