Humminbird 858c Help needed


Recommended Posts

Just installed a new 858c on my boat and am wondering how do I set it up so that I can actually see hooks. There are small marks on the screen but they are so tiny they are hard to distinguish from the background.

First thing I would check is the scroll speed, increase it to maximum. That will cause the fish mark to elongate. Check the sensitivity settings and the cone settings. If you just installed the 'ducer, check to see that it is aiming where it should be too. I dont always get true "hooks" but I do get good solid long marks with my 858c.
