Awesome video, as always! However, i see a lot of videos explaining what things are, where the boat is, what hard and soft bottom look like. I personally (and hope others as well) would love an explanation or a schooling on ok... i found that rock with fish on it. Now what? How do i waypoint it and navigate to a close enough casting distance, whats your bait of choice, how many casts or different baits until you give up on said fish, how to orientate yourself so you're casting at the object without livescope. Basically, the next step to this video without giving away all your secrets! Go DAWGS

Came here to learn about fish finders...left with a new favorite song. Thanks for putting me onto that absolute banger of a track you used in the intro. I'm not ready to talk about how long I've had it on repeat 😂

This is a great vid! It’s the best I have seen on bottom contours, structure and actual fish. I found it extremely helpful. Thank you for the great info!

I love it! i just went from a garmin Striker 4 to a humminbird helix 7 msi g4n, so I've been learning a lot lately. maybe making a video on how to mark waypoints and how to position your kayak to fish them would be nice.

Great presentation for us beginners. Thank you! You can call your series "See and understand what the fish finder sees through my eyes".

@samcrimmii93 5 ай бұрын

A video in depth showing what surface interference looks like and how to adjust your fishfinder to clear it up. Your videos are great but your set up is spot on. Maybe show more of what your missing on the fishfinder by not having it adjusted right. Also no one ever talks about when your in 12 ft of water and your sonar is only covering what about 10 to 15 ft or less of the bottom, we could be missing a lot, but using side scan is a broader area. Something else that is not talked about is as your pinging down, where are the fish entering the cone front back side etc. I know it is a snap shot but if you want to get on top of them it helps to know what direction they are going. Thanks I love your videos Sam

It would be great to have a video on marking a waypoint with fish on it. Then navigate back to the waypoint and set up to fish it. I think utube has a couple of videos on this but not in a kayak. As u know a kayak has its advantages and disadvantages. Thanks for the info u share !!!! It is much appreciated!!!!

I love the fishfinder Friday concept. What I would really like to know is what stuff should I way point. I always see thing and it might be an individual thing and never know if I should mark it for a later date. The other thing, I see fish around something non descript. Do I mark that or is it just fish traveling. Hopefully you can answer some questions like that. Keep it up. You have become my fishing mentor!

Love this series of videos you’re creating. Stupid attempt at a name, In Depth (because depth finder). Hoping you’ll cover some of these in future videos. * What is all the interference on 2D? Trolling motor washout? * Explain frequency and when to use which one. * How to tell the difference between fish or bait balls and interference * More in depth on how to tell if something is a stump or brush pile etc * How to tell if something is bait fish or just the bottom like at 16:50.

looking at your fish finder lets me know I need a new one . I have a hook 2 in the 12" screen that is about 5 years old. I bought a new triple shot transducer for it but still dont get the detail you are showing here .

Absolutely awesome video! If a black background could be rigged up to minimize the reflection, more detail might be evident. As far as a name for this series, maybe something along the lines of “ opening your 3rd eye with fish electronics “

Gene, I was having a hard time following why images went left to right when you would turn. I am a complete novice hence why I watch. When you said you were turning 90 degrees left, it helped by knowing what you were actually doing. Still asking myself how the hell that looks like anything in particular . As for a name, for people like me....Fish Findin' for Dummies. I mean it, I am lost as an easter egg. I watch a lot of your stuff and have gone from telling people if I had to fish to eat, I would starve to now I am catching more and more. So thank you.

Maybe this is already in the works but I'm curious if you can compare si and di low frequency vs hi frequency over the same imagine? This is a great knowledge transfer on how to read electronics. Thank you

I like the concept. It's always a bit of a struggle to know what I'm looking at so this helps. Please do some time on natural lakes too. So much content like this is focused on reservoirs with road beds and man made structure.
