Hi, I got this email from iluvcrappie and I am sure he would want you to read this to help you out:
"i found that if you are in shallow water I switch to the 9 degree beam....I found that I am able to see a tar drop lure for sunfish with the gain at 18 or 19 highest I have had to go is 22 with the gain....as far as the noise the only time you need to use it is if there are other people with plashers around.....me and the wife use both Birds in the same shanty less than 5 feet apart and I have it setup so that there is no interference what so ever between the 2 units......its just a matter of playing around with the machine and figuring out what works the best....I too have had excellent luck with the Bird I am very happy with my purchase thats for sure....I have a buddy that comes with me and the wife and he doesnt own a flasher.....me and the wife sit and pull fish after fish out of the hole and he doesnt get any bites at all...lol.....I got him using my flasher now and he really enjoys how it works as he has never used a flasher before......since I bought my 35 I have sold 2 birds as well....my uncle went out and got one and my brother in law also went out and got his.....feel pretty good that I pulled them away from the Vexilar and brought them into the Humminbird world
