Yup, you use the sonar screen and turn on the amplitude scope on the right side of the screen and you have got one sweet package. I fish normally in 30 ft or less and I can see the fish, my jigs/baits and usually other fishing buddies jigs/baits if they are close. And you use it for a little while and you can tell by the arches what you have swimming around down there without a camera and you can see them rooting around on the bottom and it is so much fun to watch them being drawn up from the bottom on both the sonar screen and amplitude scope together by your baits. What's even neater is when you suspend a dead stick and one come ripping up from the bottom to tag it. And when that northern pike comes across at 15 feet and you bring the bait up to it and wham "fish on". The other things I like are the scrolling sonar screen lets me ponder the whole water column over time, and the strength color signal as a fish moves into the sonar cone, you cannot tell which direction they are coming from but you can watch them pass from one side of the cone to the other just by the color signature on the screen. So much fun.
