OK. I think I inserted the correct file.

I had the same issue a while back, and I think the screen goes blank over a certain depth. I was told by Lowrance tech support that I needed to set the depth range that I would be fishing at. I explained that we don’t fish on the west coast at a specific depth the bottom depth is constantly changing. For me the work around was to buy a different FF for ocean use. I still use the Hook in the lakes, and bays.

Great fish, Time of year to start getting more!

Regulation changes include the following:

1.  A large number of groundfish regulation changes. Groundfish include many species of fish including rockfish, lingcod, greenlings, cabezon, and others.

2.  A change in purple sea urchin regulations.

3.  Complete Pacific halibut regulations.

Here’s a few photos from last may when the squid was thick. The first photo shows squid suspended and spread out, the second is what it looks like balled up on the bottom. This was peak squid season so these marks are really visible, later in the year as it fades away expect most of it to be on the bottom but in much smaller quantities. The marks on the bottom will be 1/4 the size of what you’re seeing in the second picture. Last year we were catching squid in December but it was all on the bottom like the second picture. I’m running a garmin echomap 9” btw. Also knowing the area helps distinguish potential squid marks from other fish marks. Over sand is where you want to be. The squid can be found from the coast guard beach to about a half mile past lovers point. It also comes in in front of the tides hotel. Depths range from 60-140.
