So i got my FF set up over the weekend and went out to Glorietta bay yesterday, FF was tracking Depth and temp and drop offs pretty good, just wasnt picking up any fish. I realize this question can be contorted in many ways(duh dumbass there were no fish!) but as much as paddled around i had to have come across atleast one fish! What are come things i can try? I just need it to pick up fish then i will be set. Can anyone help me on this one? thanks.

Check youtube for tutorial and tips and tricks, many videos there but an HB
160 will pretty much do the trick as long as the ducer is working and in the proper position, then check settings...
