That being said I have seen some bitchin returns from my friends chirp with the DS overlay. I think it overlays 455 kHz over 200 kHz and gives a better HF image of bait and small objects. After playing with it and dropping your sibiki a hundred or so times, you should be able to easily distinguish between bait and kelp, or even spanish vs greenies.
I prefer to use a dual screen vs overlay. Dual screen will show conventional sonar and down scan image at the same time.

Congrats on the success on multiple trips. Great combinations on the video editing. Thanks for the tips on the set up. I agree, I always prefer using medium to large GB's. I'm so glad that they're are back in numbers. It was great to meet you last week at the launch. Mark
