How to read a Humminbird 360

I'm going to do this in 5 posts. It's far to confusing otherwise.
First pic I am in 35 ft of water. Note the speed is .1,,, I am hovering over a school of crappies. The mean depth of this school is 24 ft as noted they are in the second ring (rings are 12 ft apart). Also note,, if you are fishing off the left or right side of the boat,, there are no fish there. Therefor the need for a 12 - 14 or 16 ft rod is BS! I hovered over this school for about 10 minutes until a guy with a 150 merc came over to see what I was doing and spooked the fish.

This pic is the same time. The blue dots are waypoints I entered B4. Note,, MOST fish are between 12 and 24 ft.

These two pics show 2 more schools in the area. In the less grainy pic these is a school at about 11:30 and another at about 12:00. In the more granny pic one of the schools moved to about 2:00. I chased the new school and caught 2 nice bluegills,,, wish I had brought some worms or grubs. Anyway,,, I having fish for supper!!!

Cool screenshots O! I thought about you the other day when Fish Hawk & I were chasing school(s) at Bartlett. Was wondering if your 360 would be a better tool to follow these schools. Other than attaching a marker buoy to a caught & released Crappie……

I didn't put a camera down (it's in WI),, just a minnow,,, minnow down,,, 15 inch crappie up. 2 rods going at once (I caught a some smaller crappie too). Works for me. My guess would be the crappie were feeding on shad?
The other schools may have been shad too??? However,,, in the deeper water,,, minnow down,, after a LOT of misses,,, bluegill up. I'll be there Saturday,,, in the 30 ft depth range!!

Funny you should bring that up,,,,, next day I had to jump start my motor with a trolling motor battery. Oh yes,,, I ALWAYS carry a set of jumper cables in the boat!!!
I spent many a day (when I was young) trying to start a 50 HP with a pull rope!
