DSI units mark fish but they don't do it as well as traditional sonar units do. Instead of an arch you will see a small dot. I wouldn't buy a DSI only unit myself and I think Lowrance made a mistake in putting them out that way. As much as I like Lowrance, if you are looking at DSI: buy the Humminbird units that have both traditional sonar and DSI.
