Default Re: Still working for the Eyes!!!

surface temps are just that, they dont indicate the real temp of the water. a good sonar unit can show u the striations in the water column, and its pretty consistent. I was out on LH sunday morn and my rear unit showed 59 on the topwater, while my ulterra 2ft into the water showed 56. by lunchtime it was 59 on both units after the wind blew and mixed the water up. The deeper water is always colder and the surface temp and body temp will show that, while shallower water and bays will have higher temps. Its always been like this on LH and alot of other bodies that have weird lake layouts, where as a place like GWL is pretty even and changes only based on depth mostly
