furuno 1971f ve tm 185m

[assosvipfishg]

Hello, I am new to the forum and I am joining from Turkey. I apologize if it has been opened before. With Furuno 1971f and tm185, at what settings can I see the sea squid on the screen and if there is, can you send me a screenshot of the squid? Good day to those who have information.

Is there anyone who can help me regarding this current issue?

Squid don't have any air bladders, and their bodies are 90% filled with water. But in selecting the right transducer, they can show up on fish finders.
Squid will typically look like bait or a type of blue fuzz on your screen. What you need is a transducer that is compatible of transmitting High Frequency of 200kHz + and then set the fish finder for a short Pulse Length.

The TM185M has a too low of frequency (85-135kHz) for use in detecting Squid.

Thank you for your answer. Which transducer do you recommend for a low budget 1971f? For example Airmar 525T-PWD P66

assosvipfishg,

What is the working water depth that you are wanting to detect these squid..? This information is very important in selecting the GP1971's transducer for use in squid detection.

assosvipfishg,

Bu kalamarları tespit etmek istediğiniz çalışma suyu derinliği nedir? Bu bilgi, GP1971'in dönüştürücüsünün kalamar tespitinde kullanılmasında çok önemlidir. :emin değilim:

Minimum 4 mt. maximum 100 mt.

assosvipfishg,

yes, you could use the 525T-PWD (P66) and it might work at that depth detecting those Squid using the 200kHz High Frequency.

But I would use the CHIRP TM165HW that has 600 Watts of power and maximum depth of 500 ft (152 m). This transducer's High frequency range is between 150 kHz to 250 kHz, with a 30° average beamwidth, and the High frequency will provide you superior shallow water performance, along bottom detail and fish target separation at the depths that you want for that Squid detection.
