Not with my Elite 7 DSI unit. Because the kelp stocks really looks like
trees, with a trunk and branches. Not 100 percent of the time, but
a huge difference from standard sonar imaging. I can see it especially
since I can bounce back and forth between sonar imaging and DSI.
I love DSI for halibut fishing, and WSB fishing since I hunt those fish
right at the kelp line.

I agree with all of that and in fact i think I said all of that in fewer words but the ineffectiveness in deeper water is a problem for me. The unit i had was straight DSI so I didn't have the luxury of switching back and forth. If my next unit comes with DSI along with standard sonar then so be it but I won't shop for it.
