LOW

Intensity Return

Strong Returns (possibly rocks, tree limbs, or other structure)

As the boat moves, the unit charts the changes in depth on the display to create a profile of the Bottom Contour. The Sonar View displays the sonar return intensity with different colors.

Strong returns often result from rocky or hard bottoms (compacted sediment, rocks, fallen trees), while weaker returns often result from soft bottoms (sand, mud), vegetation, and small fish.

The colors used to represent high, medium, to low intensity returns are determined by the palette you choose in the Sonar Colors menu option. See Sonar Menu Tab to set the Sonar Colors.
