I couldn't upload these photo's on MS. I had to load them on my web site. Not sure what the problem was. Can someone load these on MS for me and point me where there at? I don't want to have these costing my web site bandwidth.

The blue line at the top just above the yellow lines is my jig, the Yellow streaking lines are Bluegills rising up to check out my bait. Can it get any clearer then that other then a camera

Again the blue line jigged at the top is my jig and the yellow lines are bluegills. The left side is 4 times amplified at the bottom to give you detailed movement. The right side is regular mode. Pretty neat, eh? oh yea, it was minus 2 when I started and it worked fine.

I got a great deal on one actually. I don't know what the deal is. I deleted several old photo's and it still wouldn't upload them. I'll send you an Email Mike.

I get an error message trying to put in my gallery. I don't know what the problem is.

Sweet! What is all the stuff above your jig though?

My guess is clutter from the gain being turned up.

I think Mike is right. Fishing like this,,the mid area doesn't matter anyways. My focus is on that bottom 4 feet. I think the 67 or 68 model also does this too, just a smaller screen and less power. Which in 15 to 20 feet of water shouldn't matter much. Also you can see the jig starting at about 3 feet. I was fishing in 4 foot of water and watched the jig almost to the top, fish appeared quicker though, lol

Does the M68c look like that just on a smaller screen and with no expandability?

Pretty cool pics! I have the X67c that I bought primarily for my kayak but have crafted a custom ice ducer mount. However, at this point, I think I still prefer my marcum lx3 for hardwater. Don't get me wrong, the Lowrance is super sensitive, gives a great bottom read, but when a fish "sniffs" my jig, it produces another scrolling horizontal line across the screen that seems to converge with the line that represents my jig. That's all fine and good if the fish are aggressive, but this past night I had a lot of "sniffers" that needed to be coaxed. Once one fish came in for a look, it produced a line and then I couldn't tell if there were one or four fish at the jig. I found that I could better distinguish multiple fish near my jig with my Lx-3 because of the separate slivers of color. Any Lowrance experts have tips?

Sweet unit for sure....
WHY NOT UPLOAD to an account at www.photobucket.com (http://www.photobucket.com)
????????????????????????????????????????

IT'S FREEEEEEEEEEEEEE and they have been pretty good for me.
:D

WALLEYE MIKE:
That's the PRICE it is BECAUSE it's BOTH Sonar and GPS....LMAO!!!
My LMS332c doesn't have internal GPS so I leave the "puck" on the boat and run mine just as Sonar in the winter....

I really like them big screens for sure. Some day I'll graduate to one of them. For now though my x67c is obviously much smaller but does the same fantastic looking screen shots with active fish. Gotta love the color ! When them fish come lunging up off bottom, man-oh-man, WWWEEeeeeeeee ! So YES GUTZ, it rocks !!!
:D:fish::D
