Hey Y,all! We just started a new channel for the Live Stream and we’d really appreciate it if you subscribe to the new channel! We’ll be doing live streams every Tuesday at 7pm CST and have short 5-10 minute videos with segments from the show. Here’s a link to the channel: kzfaq.info/love/3WT07nTd1nIW2yrItZTV2A Thanks for your support! Jonny

Great set up. The MEGA 360 pod via the HB Control Head can display Side Imaging at your bow position. My trol mtr moves the boat 2.5 mph plenty fast enough to get good side imaging display. Slower just give more detail. realy nice for staying at the bow and SI a given area.

The single best investment you made was the updated trolling motor. I was surprised watching your videos that you didn’t have that spot lock. I have a $3000 86 Ranger and the first thing I put on it was a Ultrex. Almost Doubled the price of my boat but so worth it. 😂

Need to add that to properly use live scope you should use lithium batteries. The system requires constant 12v power, if your lead acid/AGMs drop to low or are to high the system will shut off. 12v lithium’s maintain constant 12v from low charge to full charge.

This video was very informative for me. I was planning to get side imaging for drift fishing for walleye, but it sounds like I need down imaging. I was unaware of this difference. Thank you for that info.

@nathaniellarson8 3 жыл бұрын

Side imaging is for scouting, driving around looking for structure and fish off to the sides of your boat. Down imaging is the same thing, just sraight down, like sonar but better defined. To me, side-imaging is way more useful. You can see hundreds of feet off to the side to help find structure and fish. You can see if the bottom is soft, or hard and rocky and transition points between because harder bottoms have brighter returns. I bought an old Lowrance HDS-8 unit with the Structure Scan box and transducer(both side and down imaging) last year for $400, it's old but works fine. While you are drifting down imaging and/or traditional sonar would be more useful, yes.

This video is great and it was definitely a huge help. I did still have a few questions regarding your front hummingbird Helix 9 setup. I noticed your Ultrex has a built in transducer but I can't tell which one it is. Are you soley using this for your front Helix for 360 imaging or do you have it connected to your trolling motor transducer as well? Is your trolling motor transducer MSI or only MDI? Is your front Helix MDI only or did you get the side imaging? I'm trying to see if there is a benefit to me buying an ultrex with MSI or if i shoud go with the MDI model that is a bit cheaper.

@richardj6593 2 жыл бұрын

If it is true that fish get conditioned to the sound and vibrations of forward facing sonar and stop biting over time, then individual manufacturers have a chance to take the lead by simply building a sound distorter on the transducer that mixes up or masks the sound and frequency to keep fish from getting conditioned. Wait and see, this is be a huge selling point for the first company to do it.

@theultimatesteelshooter8610 3 жыл бұрын

Why did you get a MSI control head on the bow? You can display your SI image from the console on an MDI bow control head, you can’t change any setting from the bow but you can see it if you want. That would save a few bucks as well

Any plans to provide any Livescope seminars? I'd love to learn how to better utilize my unit.

Will the 360 work with all the helix GN3 units no matter the size? 7-12 inch?

i appreciate the time you spend on your videos, however, i have to disagree about the livescope transducer on the motor shaft. when you are spot locked, it is constantly turning and not aiming where you want it.
