QuadraBeam™ Sonar

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System supports QuadraBeam™ sonar. QuadraBeam™ sonar provides an extremely wide 90° area of coverage. QuadraBeam™ starts with two 45° 455 kHz beams for a continuous 90° of uninterrupted side to side coverage to 160 feet. These Side Structure locating beams reveal fish and structure to the left and right of your boat near the bottom. For structure directly below your boat, Quadrabeam™ uses DualBeam PLUS™ technology.

DualBeam PLUS™ Sonar

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System uses a 200/83 kHz DualBeam PLUS™ sonar system with a wide (60°) area of coverage. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar has a narrowly focused 20° center beam, surrounded by a second beam of 60°, expanding your coverage to an area equal to your depth. In 20 feet of water, the wider beam covers an area 20 feet wide. The 20° center beam is focused on the bottom, to show you structure, weeds and cover. The 60° wide beam is hunting for fish in the wide coverage area. DualBeam PLUS™ sonar returns can be blended together, viewed separately or compared side-by-side. DualBeam PLUS™ is ideal for a wide range of conditions - from shallow to very deep water in both fresh and salt water. Depth capability is affected by such factors as boat speed, wave action, bottom hardness, water conditions and transducer installation.

WideSide® Sonar

(with optional-purchase WideSide® transducer)

Your 700 Series™ Fishing System also supports WideSide® sonar with the purchase of an additional WideSide® transducer. The WideSide® transducer is a specialized "side-looking" transducer that is extremely useful for bank fishing or looking for bait fish in open water. The WideSide® transducer uses three different sonar elements that transmit signals to the left, right and straight down from your boat. The downward beam is 200 kHz with a 24° area of coverage. This beam maintains a continuous digital depth readout from the bottom directly beneath your boat. The side beams are 455 kHz with a 16° area of coverage. The side-looking elements can be used independently, or together to locate targets near the surface of the water on either side of your boat.
