When I looked at your picture of your Garmin I see fish on the down images but there is no sign on your side scan.  Does the side scan show good structures just outside the north marina?

The infrequent "stacks" of fish I saw in Eagle Beach did not always show up on side scan.  For me, it has been better for finding fish on the bottom or close to it.  And, yes, it is useful for seeing "bottom anomalies" (say that fast about 3 times).  I have observed individual rocks, humps and bumps...and even long ridges left over from the dike building days.  And when those things attract structure loving fish, they do usually show up.  It is an interesting show when you pull within range of a rock dike or wall.

I've just bought the 7sc but not yet used it I'm very interested in the dikes and the west corner. 
There are some humps that are hard to locate that I found a few years ago but can not relocate.
