Hey mate its not all about showing fish it's setting it up to see your side imaging view as clear as you can when you tune it the best you can you have to try and work out what is and isn't fish !!
When I set mine up I drove past any rock walls at wharfs to tube it in to get a clear picture once you dial it in it will start to be more clear what is and isn't fish !!
So maybe try tuning it best you can on something where you know it has good structure that you can tune it to by doing multiple passes
I can't help you with settings as I don't run the side scan now its just full time down scan sonar for blue waters its failed in for now !!
