Is it true that you can pick up flocks of birds working a bait school with radar?

Also, can anyone recommend a website that clearly explains the different functions of marine electronics. I would like to know more about sonar and fish finders for rec use. What is the difference etc.

thanks

Think someone is telling you Porkies :rolling laughter:

There's alot you can do with radar including picking up rain clouds but thats a bit far fetched picking up a flock of birds is one thing but disguishing that they are working a school of baitfish is another thing.

Best off googling up say Furuno, JVC etc if you want specs & capabilities of a certain product else you'll hear more Porky's
