If you are completely confused by your fish finder, this is the video for you! In this video, I explain how to interpret down imaging on your Humminbird, Lowrance, and Garmin fish finders to find more offshore bass. I give tips and instruction on how to read the images and understand where your boat is in relation to what you see on the screen. Hope you enjoy!

True genius is the ability to explain anything at a fifth grade level.....thank you.

@jddarby007 3 жыл бұрын

You nailed it.

@sidewaysrain7609 3 жыл бұрын

If you need a fish finder to catch fish you are at a 5th grade level!

@ericoakley4388 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you sidewinder, just entered fourth grade so I’m ahead of schedule!

@steveking8548 2 жыл бұрын

@@sidewaysrain7609 If that's true, I guess you think: If you need a boat to catch fish, you're at a 4th grade level??? If you need a vehicle to travel, you're at a 3rd grade level??? Can you see how none of this is realistic?

As a LONG time angler I wanted to say thank you SO much for these videos! I never really used fish finders as I would almost always sight fish structure. Your explanations are invaluable!

Man, there is no other channel anywhere that I know of like this one (especially for anglers looking for educational content). Jonny should have way more subscribers then it shows... this should be the number one fishing channel.

@Pilot545 3 жыл бұрын

You do an awesome job of explaining a complicated subject. I flew F-16 is USAF and interpreting a radar image is not intuitive...whether air-to-air or air-to-ground and SAR. Obviously, some unique characteristics for sonar on a boat that make it slightly different in some aspects, so I definitely appreciate your explanation!

@alanoliver5378 3 жыл бұрын

I live in the UK, I go sea fishing on my kayak, I've had it 2 years, its fitted with a Lawrence fish finder, that is the best down to earth explanation I have seen in the two years I've owned it, thank you so much, tight lines kidda, be lucky 😉

I would like to tell you that this video was very well made. I bought a fishfinder not long ago for the first time and was very intimidated when I tried to use it until I saw this video. Now I fish with great confidence using it. The way you broke the video down made it very easy to follow along. I've watched a handful of other videos that you've put out and they are equally awesome. Thank you for all the content and keep up the good work.👍

@DeeDee-vu5mi 4 жыл бұрын

Great explanation, may I add when the boat is not moving, all info seen on the screen is a recorded history of whats directly under the transducer. For those that dont know, the far left of the screen is the oldest histroy. Thanks again for you explanation. Enjoyed the videos.

Great way of dumbing it down enough for me! I think what's really helpful is you stay focused and don't go off on a tangent. How fast are you able to go before your image is no longer reliable... be it from distortion, transom bubbles, prop wash, etc.? Thanks!

I remember back with my first fishfinder, I got freaked out when I saw (what I didn't realize at the time) were air bubbles rising. I thought large fish were coming up from the bottom, with the bright diagonal line. 😅
