I too once worried about such details as AOB and the PK and the %$#@! stadimeter until I discovered the Dick O'kane method via RR's great tutorial ( many thanks), since then I have not looked back.

Shoot everything 90 degrees to target track, if you want to lead the target by say 10 degrees (before it crosses 0 degrees relative) just remember to adjust AOB by 10 degrees, click twice and update bearing by clicking range twice, done.

I am fully confident of shooting even at ranges over 2000 yards, of course that all fails when the target sees your fish's wake, just attack at night. Another thing I love about this method is the amount of acceptable error, even your course estimation is off by a few degrees your probably still gonna hit, speed is really the key element. I shoot fish with reckless abandon now. Fire and forget.

Now trying this method with sonar only, more art than science but fun to try.
