What is Side Imaging and How to Read It | Humminbird

This video explains what Humminbird Side Imaging® is and how to read it. Utilizing Side Imaging sonar allows you to scan large areas to find productive water filled with structure and fish. Making your days on the water that much better.

We break down the differences in 455kHz and our MEGA Imaging+™ (1.2MHz) and their uses.

Actually, I spend way more time searching than fishing since using electronics. Not complaining, I enjoy it. Even put one my kayak.

This is a fantastic explanation of SI and how it works.

How do you get such a sharp image? What are the best settings for clear fresh water?

[waltermossjr.]

Wow it’s a very easy for me to read, amazing 🤩

I have a fishfinder lowrance, but I think humminbird, the images look better, so for the next I will buy humminbird

Please put out a fine tuning vid for SI MG. Structure shows great but the fish we are catching don't show up on the screen.

[tombiga]

yeah how do you get such a great picture? I get nothing like that

[nightwaves]

Is there a minimum depth to receive the specified max ranges?

[rustyd]

I have lowrance but switched to humminbird. I ain’t going back.

I'm disappointed I bought the helix7 SI for one reason.

This unit doesn't come with enough memory for me to do my own live mapping of a river here in South Africa.

Now I have to buy an SD card for just on $200 with maps on it that only covers the ocean. Apparently it has software on it and I can't use just a normal 32gig card bought from my local computer shop.

I use a 3m boat with a 15hp motor and never plan to go into the ocean with it.

Buying this SD card is a waste of money.

Do flathead and flounder show? If so what do they look like?

[meazimi]

Hi, I bought a Helix 5 GPS G2 and I am looking for SI de and down imaging but I can not find it, can you help me to set it up please.

[americanmade]
