Look at the second pic, very bottom shot. See the numbers at the bottom? Go to the right of 0 out to 20' and you'll see the bulkhead. Now, if this weren't visible from above because of the pier (say rocks, or logs, or ditch) you could identify it on your side scan. If there are fish suspended you can see them too.


I've picked up gators laying on bottom in shallow water, lay downs in canals, outcrops of cover off of platforms that I never even knew were there.

It paints the bottom, and you can't say that's not useful when fishing. I guess dragging your anchor would be the old school way, but side scan is way quicker and more bad a$$
