I am sure you will see benifits in all the freqs. and I tell all my customers to switch back and forth and also go side by side. I use H/wide CHIRP most all the time, even in the shallow river system.

I agree that you should experiment with your frequency use as the best changes with water and depth considerations. I generally use High or Medium Chirp. I also sometimes run 83 KHz and chirp at the same time to avoid crosstalk (unless I have sonar networked).

For downscan I generally use 800 and for sidescan I most always use 455 kHz.
