  • Learn how to identify hard or soft bottom composition on your Garmin Striker 4 Fishfinder, or any fishfinder for that matter. What you will learn about identifying hard and soft bottoms in this video will transfer between fishfinders in the Garmin line, as well as Humminbird and Lowrance.
    Follow along and learn with real examples of hard and soft bottoms on my sonar as I show you how to better understand bottom composition.
    This is one of the most asked questions I get about the Garmin Striker 4 fishfinder, so I hope this helps you better understand what your looking at and how to better use your sonar.

      This area is a harder bottom area, and it has a small bit of rock it looks like on the bottom as well.

    Looks hard to me. A good second bottom suggests another clear sonar return. Then a third bottom as well
    If it was soft the sound waves would have been absorbed and not returned.
    Hopefully I've read it properly, learned a lot from this video thanks

    6:13 its my tuuurn... Based on the first scan it appears hard stroke, second and third more softer which mean my boat passing the coral+weed.. probably both but hard is more dominant 🤔

    Paul. I have a basic garmin striker 4 with the two chirp frequency 77 & I can’t remember what the other is. Anyway can I upgrade to a transducer that will provide me vivid vu? Or do I need to upgrade to a whole different system?

    • @1Cast1Fish
      @1Cast1Fish  Місяць тому

      You will need to upgrade the to a new unit as well. The GT20 transducer if I remember right is like $100+ and a new Vivid can be had for about 160 or so.

      Fish must be within the transducer cone area to see on the fish finder

      Look at the thick line for our hard returns . The presence of a strong 2nd and even 3rd bottom also indicate the area is likely a harder substrate.

    This is a terrible video. If it's set correctly, you should not see a second bottom on your screen. No one learned anything from this video.
