Have you ever been video game fishing? No, I’m not talking about Sega Bass Fishing. I’m talking about using your fish finder and drop shot to catch bass vertically underneath your boat! In this video, I share everything you need to know to be a successful video game fisherman! Everything from understanding how to identify your drop shot on 2d sonar, to baits, retrieve, areas and even some of my own secret tips! Hope you enjoy!

Johnny I watched this video a year ago, a time or two since and again now. You offer the best descriptions of anyone. Hope you make it to Arizona some time. Fishing here seems harder. More time looking in all the wrong places, more effort, less bites. With 100+ degree temperature plus 80+ degree water and fish going deep any little tidbits to find fish helps. Can’t catch em if ya can’t find em. Thanks.

Thank you. I got a used boat and it had a 10 year old fish finder and now I know what I am looking at and how to set it up. may the force be with you.

Your comment is kinda old but to do this kind of fishing, IMO, you are actually better off buying an old used high end graph then the weaker "consumer grade". The cheaper ones don't have enough power to watch your bait much past 20-25' (unless you have big weight on bottom for better ping return). Many times in heat of summer, you will want to be in 40-50' of water....at least on Table Rock. Spots will set up 30' in tree tops over 50' of water. Also if a thermalcline sets in summer, they can be 35ish feet.

Great video! I do the same method on the Missouri River walleye fishing. The only difference is we use jigging raps! Sometimes it helps to go to 83kil instead of 200 to find the fish then switch to 200 to zero in on them. Especially in 20-40 feet of water!

So much information, I had to watch it again. Not monster fish but some great eaters. I cannot wait till you show settings on DI & SI. That is my problem, I cannot see the fish which discourages me from offshore fishing. Teach me Professor, ready to learn more. Really need help with settings. Keep up the great job!!!!!!

Yep, been doing this with an X70a since the mid 90's. I'm only findung your vids now, because I am considering upgrading to a SI/360, active eventually. Oh and my X70a draws arches at a much slower speed than your saying it takes. Any movement for a few feet from trolling motor will catch them, if they are mostly stationary. Good vid keep it up!

The cone of transducer is (unless its widescan) is 1/3 the depth of water so your cone would only be 3'. I would be concerned your presence overhead would spook fish with only 10'
