I have a bought Eagle Cuda 168 fish finder as a beginner fish finder and I am having difficutly adjusting the fish finder to get accurate readings. The transducer is mounted to my trolling motor (There are not to many options on my inflatable pontoon boat) and I get a lot of interference. When I put my hand on the motor while turned on, I feel a lot of vibration. Is this affecting the transducer? If I don't turn the sentitivity to 50% and turn on the noise reducer on high, then my screen goes crazy and shows ton's of fish. Lately, if I see a fish or a school of fish on my sonar I am not sure if it is my fish finder or if I am really seeing fish. Even when I turn the motor off, I get a bunch of junk on my screen.
Do any you have suggestions on how I can get a more accurate reading. How do I know my sonar is not broken. Thanks for your help.
