Fish Symbols—allows you to determine how the graph shows 
underwater targets and background information. If fish symbols 
are set to Off, the unit shows all available information about the 
underwater environment. If a fish symbol is selected, the graph 
shows only the information related to that symbol. Actual fish 
returns can not always appear as perfect arches (like in Simulator 
Mode), due to the speed, fish orientation, or other conditions.
