red red red
red red red on my furuno 585 but the colour imo shows how dense a school is not what type of fish it is
ALL FISHERMEN ARE LIARS EXCEPT YOU AND ME! AND IM NOT SO SURE ABOUT YOU!

Pinky sounder pics!
grayzee, everyone has their own interpretation but this has worked for me over many years!!
As requested;
This below pic is a school of offshore pink snapper on my old Furuno sounder..........they come up as orange in the middle with green outer and thats solid pink snapper!
This below pic is a school of inshore pink snapper on my new Furuno sounder..........they come up as dense red and the bigger the red blobs the bigger the pink snapper!

Why such a contrast Ryan, is
Why such a contrast Ryan, is it purely because of depth ?
I assume the settings are the same on both units

yep!
Same settings and yes the depth changes the return echos so it reads differently!
