between the bottom and the surface twice or
more in shallow depths.

Surface noise/Aeration
When the waters are rough or the boat
passes over a wake, surface noise may ap-
pear near the zero line. As surface turbulence
is acoustically equivalent to running into a
brick wall, the bottom echo will be displayed
intermittently. Similar noise sometimes ap-
pears when a water temperature difference
(thermocline) exists. Different species of fish
tend to prefer different temperature zones,
so the thermocline may be useful to help iden-
tify target fish. 200 kHz tends to show shal-
low thermoclines better than 50 kHz.
In rough waters the display is occasionally
interrupted due to below-the-ship air bubbles
obstructing the sound path. This also occurs
when the boat makes a quick turn or reverses
movement. Lowering the picture advance
speed may reduce the interruption. However,
reconsideration of the transducer installation
may be necessary if the interruption occurs
frequently.
