I would recommend the first time you take your unit out,
leave the fishing rods at home.

Try to go through all your views on the water, play with the sensitivity,
and the SI distance, and make some recordings.

When you get home, if you don't already have it, install
Humviewer (it's free) on your PC and view your recordings.

Good Luck.
