Default Ice 35 Help. On the Lake Now

I have never used my flasher in deep water and can’t seem to find bottom.

Why does my screen look like this with no indicator of bottom??

How deep are you. Try the first setting on your main switch and back off the gain setting. Also make sure your power cord is connected securely in the back of the unit.

Make sure your on the narrow beam (455) and turn your gain up till you receive a bottom return. Also make sure your depth setting is more than the depth your fishing.

30’ isn’t deep. I can see the bottom on your flasher. Read it clockwise. It looks like your bait is at 28’ and the bottom reads 30’ just like you say. Sounds like you found the non-problem lol

Got a message from him. He is all good now. It was his back connection. Hope he’s catching some perch. Perfect depth at slave
