Great video! I have a suggestion for all you older folks. Listen to the video all the way through and then go back an make bullet points. Type them out in small print and have them laminated (or not) and take them to the lake. This way you won't forget what you have to set.

@enduringpromise 3 жыл бұрын

Stayed the whole time. Great information. I would like to see the set up on a Garmin ECHOMAP like 73sv or 93sv.

Buy the biggest screen size you can afford. Most important piece of equipment on your boat. If you are standing up front and trying to look down on a 7" screen to find fish while drop shotting, you'll kick yourself. Word! Great explanation!

Can't get over how changing up settings based on your advice helped. Found some HUGE schools of crappie this past weekend. The structure they were sitting on looked like fully leafed out trees underwater. Thank you.

Now that I'm 10 minutes from the boat launch, I can study your videos at night and take what I learn to water in the morning. It doesn't get any better than that!!

Great video. I took your advice and set my humminbird using these settings and it is alot more crisp. I"ve always set my side and down imaging around 10 on sensitivity and adjusted the contrast as needed, but by turning down the sensitivity to around 7 and adjusting the contrast to 12 is perfect. Thanks!

I am running a Lowrance and a humminbirdon my boat. This was very helpful and I just ran into some problems with the Lowrance unit so now I feel like I can get the screen looking just like I need it to be. Thanks for your help and keep the great videos coming.

Dude you are the best. Your videos are so full of knowledge. I bought a Garmin 93SV a couple months ago and have been pleased with the images I’ve been getting on downvu and sidevu so after watching this video I am stoked to get that thing dialed in! I have really started using my graphs closer to their full potential this year completely thanks to you. I bet I have watched and listened to close to 50 of your videos in just the past few months.

Today was my first day out on the water with my new lowrance hook 2 12inch triple shot. It’s quite the upgrade from the humminbird 698ci hd si. The information you provided at the end of the video for the lowrance reveal unit helped me understand the settings. I’m heading back out tomorrow so we’ll see how the new settings changes work. Great videos! Favorite fishing page.

Yes I stayed the whole time. Being a photographer, this makes a lot of sense. I'm glad you talked about Auto Range, I've always had mine on and that does confuse me on the size of what I'm looking at. I took notes so I can put them on my phone for quick reference. Thanks!

@RH-qk5lt 4 жыл бұрын

Great video, great info. One point I think worth mentioning, that would be nice for you to touch on in this video is when discussing and showing your side imagining you need to inform people watching how SI actually reads. On your graph image you were in 45fow with SI set at 75'. You're only seeing 30' on each side of your boat with that setting. In my opinion, adjusting SI range depending on depth is critical to achieve what most guy's desired/expected results are.

Yeh, I'm late to the party too. I've owned my Hummingbird Helix 7 for my Hobie kayak for a few years and never really learned to use it. I'm mainly an ice fishing dude but I do like the fishing kayak when I can get it out. I'm pretty sure I've learned more general information in this video about sonar use than all the other channels with like information combined. I'm confident that after 2 0r 3 more of these I'll actually finally know how to use my unit. Thanks a bunch.......

@hillbillytarzan 4 жыл бұрын

Garmin has brightness and contrast. If in auto depth range, you sometimes have to change both from deeper water to shallow. So it’s best to set range manually. Gonna do that from now on. Great videos. I guess lowering the MHz changes size of the cone doesn’t it? Lower for larger cone? I see more fish at the lower setting. I’m probably wrong
