Matching the Chart/Scroll Speed to the Boat Speed will keep the image returns in perspective as you would see under the water but one of the interesting tools is to adjust the Chart Speed to Open up the Details in the image like finding fish in the tree branches an increased scroll speed can open up the tree and make it easier to find fish amongst the network of tree branches. Look at these images below and watch how changing the scroll speed can be beneficial in helping find fish within the trees.

Chart Speed 3 - Matched to Boat Speed

Chart Speed 4 - Trees open up a little

Chart Speed 5 - Trees Open Even Wider and Fish are Becoming Easier to See

Chart Speed 6 - Tree Branches are open even wider and make it easier to separate the fish from the branches

This is a function and feature that Humminbird offers the user the ability to control chart/scroll speed to allow the user to gather the data they need to be successful. Understanding how it works will help you find and locate more fish. Changing Chart/Scroll Speed Faster will distort the images "real world perspective" but if you are looking for fish within structure it is a very useful tool to help you get the most out of your investment.
 
I'm probably not the only person who needs to be reminded to work with his instruments so that they can help me catch fish. It is easy to sit back and go with automatic because we get an image, even though it may not be the best image.

Thanks for your photos.
 
I've learned more from your postings about my 998csi than I could ever get from my manual. Thanks a bunch.
