WideSide® Sonar
(with optional-purchase WideSide® transducer)
Your 700 Series™ Fishing System also supports
WideSide® sonar with the purchase of an additional
WideSide® transducer. The WideSide® transducer is a
specialized "side-looking" transducer that is extremely
useful for bank fishing or looking for bait fish in open
water. The WideSide® transducer uses three different
sonar elements that transmit signals to the left, right
and straight down from your boat. The downward
beam is 200 kHz with a 24° area of coverage. This beam
maintains a continuous digital depth readout from the
bottom directly beneath your boat. The side beams are
455 kHz with a 16° area of coverage. The side-looking
elements can be used independently, or together to
locate targets near the surface of the water on either
side of your boat.
