Skunk... I watched your video, I am sure I could learn to read a graph like yours, but at first glance, it is confusing. For me, my circle is simpler. 3 colors, green (the hook) wide red band at the top of screen,(top of ice) and wide red at left edge of circle, (lake bottom). anything else that shows up on the screen (if the screen is clear after getting rid of the noise) is a fish, which will be orange (at the edge of the cone) or red (next to the bait). Sometimes a line will appear at the bottom and slowly raise, when my gain is set so my hook is green, the line rising off the bottom will be green also, which is an air bubble usually or another piece of debris rising to the surface. If it is big enough, it will be red. For me, it is pretty simple, but then again as has been stated, a matter of personal preference and what you learned on. With my Vex FLX 28, I have the option to change colors and add a 4th line if I choose to. The 4th line is to target larger fish. I haven't taken the time to learn how to use that function. The FLX 28 is Vexilars flagship flasher and has lots of options that I don't take advantage of. For the shallow lake fishing I do, it goes way beyond my mental capacity. I have an older Vex FL8, a newer FL8 that is my wife's and my son has 2 FL8's that are his and his daughters. We obviously are Vex fan boys. They play nicely together and sometimes I will have 4 of them running in the tent at the same time.
